Draytek Vigor 2820 ADSL Router

The Vigor range of routers, by Draytek, have been our first choice for businesses and educational organisations for nearly a decade now.
Easy to configure but probably the most flexible and versatile pound for pound router on the market. The latest version of the DSL router, the 2820 supports ADSL and ADSL 2+ (including Annex M)



Cisco 1841 Modular Router

It's moduler system enables owners to swap and change to meet current and future demands. With modules for everything from ADSL/ADSL 2+ to VPN accelerators and Firewalls. Speak to one of our solutions team to see which meets your needs.


Digi / Sarian DR6410 Fail Over Router

The Sarian/Digi routers are amongst the most robust devices available today. The DR6410 in particular is unique (at it's price range) in that it provides full fail over to either dial-up, ISDN or ADSL in the event of the other circuit provision failing, and then it goes back to the original connection as soon as it comes back on line.


Virtual Access Routers
The latest routers we added is the fantastic new Virtual Access range. These include the broadband bonding out of the box capable 7000 series and the brand new DSL/3G 6000 series.
As well as being, in our opinion, the best value business class routers on the market, they also have the astounding IP Select service, which for just £60 per year give you essentially a perpetual warranty, ongoing software and feature upgrades, advanced remote and local monitoring tools, AND a four hour on-site swap out (by a technical courier) if you router cannot be fixed remotely.
