With the MBR-500, is there any way to combine it with a wireless Belkin Router? It only has one port but it says it can be used as LAN output or WAN input. Since it will be in a three story house, I don't think its small internal antenna would reach all floors.

Anyone have any performance numbers on either of these? Could it break the 1mb/s connection it would replace assuming that the cell signal is strong?

Was hoping to hear back from someone quickly cause I'd like to pick one up as an xmas gift. Guess I'll buy the MBR-1000 and just keep the return receipt.

Probably works about as well as any other SOHO router would. Also, if you missed it, they do NOT include the interfaces for the cellular network...they give you USB or ExpressCard slots.

For a business, I'd go with the one that Adtran makes because it's cheaper than the one that Cisco makes and probably just as good.
