Please forgive me if this post is altogether in the wrong place, but I need help finding a certain piece of hardware. I have a number of firewalls running (very happily) on FreeBSD. Each one is connected on the outside NIC to a Cisco 1601 Router, which is connected in turn to an NTU etc.... I am sure I could save a lot by installing a WAN card directly into the BSD firewall, thereby doing without the Router altogether - FreeBSD can do all the routing I need after all! So - is there such a WAN serial card available? And (most important) one which is supported by the necessary BSD drivers? Any pointers would be MUCH appreciated.
