Situation: Remote office site - 1/2 dozen users, a dozen IP phones, 2 broadband connections, 2 site2site VPNs to main office - 1 to phone network, the other to data network.
Currently on two separate ADSL routers and use static routes on the LAN (or change the device's router address) to get the traffic going the right way.
Bit of a pain as when one line goes down I have to faff about with static routes and VPN's all over the place to get the network back up and running.
Currently the ADSL routers are a Draytek Vigor 2000 series and the good old Netgear DG834g.
The netgear boxes are excellent - but not particularly stable - which as they are doing the S2Site vpn for the voice network isn't very helpful.
I've tried using the Vigor with it's WAN2 (ethernet) connected to the Netgear to direct traffic through to the right WAN gateway - but that just introduced too much lag on the voice network ...
Question: So - thinking about ramping up the quality of the network kit - I'm after a solution that I can put in place in the remote office that can handle 2 ADSL connections and site2site VPNs that will have a decent throughput and be able to give priority to voice traffic (identified by protocol or IP range). If a connection goes down it should be relatively easy to re-route the voice VPN and traffic. I'll also need a similar unit in the main office to replace the Netgear I use for the voice traffic. The Vigor in the main office does 3 other site2site VPNs and seems to be reasonably stable.
Whatever I put in place needs to be robust and able to be left alone for weeks rather than the days that I'm currently getting....
TIA
