Just wondering if the standard linksys/dlink type of routers work with business DSL lines. We're using Verizon business DSL and it looks like the standard home DSL stuff so before I go out and buy a cheap router, I'd like to know if there are any differences to the setup compared with ADSL.

It will work just fine, usually "business dsl" just means you can run servers, get a static IP, your traffic has priority over other traffic, etc. Its all the same to the router though.

It will work for sure, but if it is for a business and has some critical stuff, you may want to look into a hardware based firewall vs. a SOHO NAT box.
