Not sure where you got the processor info from?! I'll bet that an 851 with extra memory comes nowhere close to an 871 performance wise. I would go for at least an 871 for a 30Mb service especially considering the price difference. Cisco stuff is much better made and much more sophisticated/versatile but if you just want a simple cheap router that will do the job 98% of the time don't buy a Cisco router, you will be wasting your money.

If you open up a 870 you'll see 266MHz printed on the CPU. I don't have a 850 here but that CPU doesn't go any slower. Maybe the ALTERA chip is different. The 870 has an EPM3128ATC144-7N. »www.altera.com/cgi-bin/devsearch···=EPM3128 Can anyone look inside the 850?

I have switched my plans several times started with 20/5 went to 35/10 finally settled out 20/20 as the best for my needs the 871 has worked perfectly at all speeds.
