Endian Firewall

Last month I finally decided to install Endian as our office firewall.  For the last 4 years, we've been dependent on our hardworking Netgear home router to serve our needs.  This year however, we've had some difficulties in our glue-on networking infrastructure:  slow VPN, lack of bandwidth management, employees browsing unproductively and excessively during work hours, intermittent connections, and frequently dropped wireless connection.

We've found the latter to be due to a faulty wireless router.  The intermittent connection was frequent with our previous internet service provider, and also after brownout occurs.  I'll see on the next brownout if it will still be a problem.  For the rest, I'm hoping the firewall will help.
