    Default Network Firewall/VPN Appliances *Urgent*

    Hey everyone,

    I'm having a bit of trouble here, and I'd appreciate some opinions/help.

    Last year, I purchased a Dlink DFL-700 firewall from Tigerdirect, and it's been great. So good in fact, that I wanted to pick up 2 more for other sites.

    However, I've just found out that the dfl-700 has now been discontinued, and replaced with the DFL-800. The main difference is that the 800 supports 100 concurrent vpn tunnels, while the 700 only does 80. Not a big deal, I only need 10 anyways. "Why not just buy the 800 then?" The DFL-700 was $499 retail, the DFL-800 is $1499 retail.

    If it ain't broke, replace it with something more expensive. Thanks Dlink.

    I cant find any retailers in Canada who even have the DFL-700 in stock anymore, and a quick call to Dlink confirms that the 700 is no longer available in Canada. Amazon.com has them, but is not allowed to ship them to Canada.

    So here's where this community comes into play.. I need either:

    A) a comparable firewall with VPN capabilites, for under $700.. something that you have had personal experience with, and would recommend,

    or

    B) someone trustworthy to get the DFL-700's shipped to in the US, who would then ship them to me in Canada.

    Any help would be great, but I need to get this underway ASAP. Thanks in advance!

    I will offer to be the middle man for shipping. You can buy them and have them shipped to my companies addy and I will have them shipped out from here.

    PM me if you are interested.

    On second thought, let me have the sales guy check on _our_ price and I may be able to save you some money. Back in a sec.
