Any recommendations on a device(s) suitable for the following:

ADSL Internet access for an office with 8-10 computers, running a variety of
Window OS's with a new win 2003 sbs.
Firewall.
Support for VPN (site-site and client-site).
Also ADSL vpn client device for 2nd site with 2 computers.
Support for VOIP (via additional fxs/fxo hardware).

Is it best to go for a dedicated hardware solution such as say the symantec
200/300 series security gateways, or a consumer ADSL Router with vpn and
firewall or is the software based tools in win 2003 sbs sufficient.

Of course security is important, however so is the budget.

Finally what Antivirus for the clients (win95/98/me/2000/xp)?

Thanks

Jaime

snip

Thanks for the suggestion, is the 2600vg a sufficiently secure device to
guard the network?

As long as you set it up correctly, yes.

Any suggestions for a supplier for a 10 license pack as the sources I found
seem much more expensive than the standard Norton AV.
