Completely up to the business to decide what they need in a router. If they provided them it would be different but they don't provide them (to my knowledge at least).
The problem seems to be with speakeasy, I have at least 10 other clients setup with various t1, Bonded T1 and Satellite feeds and they give you recommendations, but they don't just leave you high and dry. One Communications ,Lightpath even Cablevision gave some direction but with speakesy it's a friggin brickwall.
