Title: Expected more from Cisco
Product review: The router is stable, and it does what says, but any access control is cumbersome. The documentation if fairly limited, and the help explanations are ambiguous. The menus are not straight forward. It was difficult to configure some fairly simple access control. The controls were limited, and it took Cisco support days to answer questions. They eventually had to resort to reading the source code to figure out the answer to my questions. When limitations on the manufacturer claims were discovered, the answer was, "Well this is an entry level router" despite feature claims. VPN is 3DES only. The first router also suffered from sudden death while configuring access controls and came up in a partially configured state that would not allow further configuration. Had to RMA the product back to Cisco.All-in-all I am very disappointed in this router, and 2 stars is generous. I gave it 2 stars only because it does seem to run for long periods of time uninterrupted (as expected). PK
