The RV0 series is a fine router...fast. The RV042 has a 233MHz CPU and 32 megs of RAM. The RV082 is 533 MHz with 32 megs, and the RV016 is 533MHz with 64 megs.

Don't confuse these with the entry level tech perspective of the 100 dollar Linksys products. They did a good job on the RV0 series. For 200-300 bucks...it's very hard to find these features and performance. I probably have 100 out there in service.

Very stable, fast, and decent basic set of business grade features. I love the built in PPTP VPN server, great for when I have to remote support them. Good firewall features allowing you to build ACLs. Built in port based VLANs. For the money...very hard to beat.
 
update of today

- machines rename, all were shitty names, so everything is hd-server, hd-chair1, hd-chair2, hd-frontdesk1, hd-frontdesk2

I'd personaly ditch the logme in free's and just setup rdp to the server and rdp into the machines from it. If not just use it off the owners machine. Down the road do it via vpn if you get a better router in there.

Anyway what message program you looking at? I have phoneslips deployed at a few clients for shooting phone messages back and forth and for the in/out board in it. In reality it supports a lot more then what my clients use it for. Program is also lightweight.

5 user pack retails for 299 but if you are a reseller you can get about a 100 bucks off that. Discounts go up as you add more users in the mix.
 
You said you were just starting business, did you put your name in the local phone book?
Ive done word of mouth consulting for 5 years now and am thinking about it..

looks good, 199 for 75 users lol, only need 6 =(

i prefer logmein free myself, much easier, sometimes ill be doing a clients job and need to hop onto someone elses machine easier to do via logmein.

the owner will get setup with RDP when her new machine comes in.

matching monitors for her, some HP 24" that was 469 from newegg, only VGA and HDMI lol. so she will enjoy

simple setup was there for like 3.5 hours would have been done sooner but of course the person that opened the door had these 2 kids, so white trash, very annoying. she kept complaining that i was using machines, bitch i gotta work, just leave.

so set em all up on logmein dented like 2 hours then went back to office and enjoyed music and logmein.

Hehehe. Yea the office we support with dentrix isn't open fridays for the most part. Anything major the owner or her husban just meets us there and unlocks the door. Makes it so much easier to do a big update when you don't have to work around people.
 
its a 2ghz Core 2 Duo, 2GB, Raid1 500GB, Server03, doesn't run that bad. Asus mobo I believe.

i would have liked to get em a entry level Poweredge 840, but they got 5 computers, 1 server, with install for like 4grand from a friend.

all mini itx machines have gig in em.

and AMD yes its just a notify program.
