Plus, is the first pic your basement from years ago when you posted pics of the new house?
How do these customers homes connect to your network?
Curious... If its only a 50mbps line why are there two fiber connections?
Plus,
what is it that you do again?

Make sure you get a Supermicro board of the proper size/dimensions.
want to tell me what board you got or one that you recommend ? Id like to make a nice untangle box for cheap

And how loud is it? Can it sit on a desktop without a stack of 40mm fans driving you insane?
That's a very subjective question, what's loud to you might be a whisper to me.
If you want quiet, pick up an Intel Atom 330 or D510 Supermicro 1U barebones.
Atom 330 up to 2GB RAM $279 on newegg

Atom D510 up to 4GB RAM $359 on newegg

I'd personally avoid the 330 board specifically because it realtek NIC's. However for home use it would still probably be fine. I'd still opt for the D510, it's a smidge better in performance, capable of more RAM and still low power. While coming with Intel Chipset based NIC's on board which is better IMO. For under $500 you can have a solid low power untangle UTM server for home or small office. I'd never use one of these boxes for more than 20-30 users MAX.
Also if you want to talk to somebody who knows these things inside and out, talk to Jim @ http://www.untangleappliances.com/ as I just barely scratch the surface on what works and what does not work well.

This man deserves a medal!
Seriously though, I have a 24 port 3Com Gigabit Switch in my living room, and while some people will say its loud, I find it comforting! I've had it on for so long now, it feels odd not hearing the constant humming..
Same here, my wife and I need to have a fan in the bedroom at night to sleep. Be it a box fan, oscillating fan, ceiling fan, whatever fan.
Also we freaked out in our office when i powered off the untangle server and 24 port switch. It was annoyingly quiet, like wtf!
We are at the final stages of our office move this weekend. Movers come on Saturdat to move out the cardboard boxes, monitors, chairs, etc and plop them all in the new place. My work here will soon be done. Yay! In the meantime here's the bottom of the rack in our office. The gaps will be completely filled this weekend. 45 U maxed out.
Top to bottom:
Dell PowerConnect 6248P switch
Dell PoE module
AT&T 3G MicroCell - what a piece of crap
Cisco 1941 Router
Cisco 1841 Router
Shoregear-T1 (with IP on post-it :eyeroll: just noticed it)
Shoregear-60/12
Dell PowerEdge R200 - Backup DC & Print Server
Dell PowerEdge R200 - DC
APC Smart-UPS 1500
APC Smart-UPS 2200XL
AT&T 3G MicroCell - what a piece of crap
Dude, its becuase you didnt NAT your firewall! duh!Mine works fine, it has limited business function though because it can only support a max of I think 4-5 phones.

Not sure what I want to do yet as far as a rack goes. I'm not willing to spend 2000 bucks for a 42U rack (that seems to be the going price from most manufacturers). I've contemplated building my own out of wood, and just have 2x2 "rails" that the servers slide in. Even a rack mount case can hit a couple grand, so I might just stick to towers, or do everything fully custom. Custom rack system and custom cases that fit in. I'd like to have something enclosed where I can just "pump" cold air right into it. I will most likely be running a sub panel to that area so I can have like 60-100 amps to play with, not that I'll ever use close to that much.
There may be only a few businesses out there that even own racks and they are ISPs, so I doubt I'd find someone getting rid of a rack here.
There's a bunch more at newegg too:

Question, may sound dumb but oh well. Looking at this rack,

All i see are square holes, how are you suppose to mount a rack server or switch to those ? Does it have some kinda inserts ?
