We have a lot of our customers installing the Cisco RV 120W, and have had great luck with it. It does have SIP ALG turned on by default, but it's an easy "click" to disable it. The router supports QOS, they're easy to find (Office Depot, for example), and they're not bad price-wise for what you get. Mark

I am in the position of needing to recommend a line of SMB (10-50 person offices) router/firewall devices that will play nice with VoIP. Specifically, office has phones (generally Cisco SPA's) connecting to remove service provider Asterisk servers. Historically, I've stayed out of the hardware on the customer side, but the growing presence of "stuff that breaks SIP" is leading me to pick a vendor. I generally am in the "don't touch my signalling" camp (read: no ALG). Is there a single vendor that is consistently good about not mucking with things too much?
I have a bunch of SSGs in all sizes deployed at various locations and have never had any issues with them at all. They're affordable, straightforward to manage and maintain. I have had issues with ASAs, Sonicwalls are outright horrible, Watchguard horrid. -- =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ J.
