Product Description
MODEL- RV016 VENDOR- LINKSYS
FEATURES- 10/100 16-Port VPN Router
The Linksys 10/100 16-Port VPN Router is an advanced Internet-
sharing network solution for your small business needs. Like any
router, it lets multiple computers in your office share an Internet
connection, but the 16 ports on this Router feature unprecedented
versatility. Two are dedicated Internet ports that let you connect
a second Internet line as a backup to ensure that you are never
disconnected. Or, you can use both Internet ports at the same time,
and let the router balance your offices requirements between them
for maximum bandwidth efficiency.
Not enough? Up to five of the thirteen full-duplex switched 10/100
Ethernet ports can be reconfigured as Internet ports, for an up to
seven-port failover or load balanced redundancy! Finally, a
dedicated DMZ port gives you a publicly accessible channel so you
can set up a web or FTP server, unimpeded by the powerful security
features of the Router.
The Virtual Private Network (VPN) capability creates encrypted
"tunnels" through the Internet, allowing up to 50 remote office or
traveling users to securely connect into your office network from
off-site. Users connecting through a VPN tunnel are attached to
your companys network -- with secure access to files, e-mail, and
your intranet -- just as if they were in the building. You can also
use the VPN capability to allow users on your small office network
to securely connect out to a corporate network.
The 10/100 16-Port VPN Router can serve as a DHCP Server, and has a
powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and
most known Internet attacks. It can be configured to

I work with infected computers on a regular basis--it's my business, I'm a computer repair shop.
The feature(s) that attracted me most was the vLAN feature. With each port able to be set as a separate LAN makes a world of difference when you are working with sick/infected computers.
Bugs can spread over a network and individual LAN's can mean an epidemic on your network or containment! With the RV016, I can safely connect a virus-filled computer to my network and not worry about the other devices as vLANs are virtual LANs--meaning, a separate LAN from the others.
I am so pleased with this unit I am looking to purchase another unit for a client of mine--a golf course resort! They have three to four LANs they want created and the RV016 is the perfect match; their public (free) wireless, the golf course's GPS and score tracking system, their kitchen and service computers, and finally their corporate offices.
Finally, I love that more ports can be created as WAN's, load balancing between them all, and more. This is a great unit for the small to medium business. The ease of setup allows for a novice user (one who understands some networking) to set this unit up. It doesn't take a networking degree or a high-end IT pro to get the basics of this unit up and running.

I initially went to Radio Shack and purchased the router in question. It was going to take several days before I received it. I went home and looked on Amazon.com for the exact make and model number. I was shocked! The router was almost half the price of Radio Shack and would be delivered overnight. Needless to say, I cancelled Radio Shack and ordered from Amazon.com If you take due diligence and check the source and reviews about the merchant, you can't lose.

I liked the fact that the router and a 16 port switch is integrated. Best of all the VPN, although a little cumbersome to install, but is working great. My previous Cisco VPN router would not let me have a VPN client stay connected all the time and would occasionally drop the connection. QuickVPN that came along with this router hasn't gone down a single time since I've installed it and so far pretty stable. Would recommend for a standard network management.
Great router for the price April 9, 2009

Worked great for what I needed it for and has been very stable, for the price. Needed a cheap router for setting up an office for hotel style offices. Setup was pretty easy and simple VLAN setup was easy as well which I needed. Have not really used any of the other advanced features such as multiple WANs or DMZ yet. I too am familiar with Watchguard, for this situation the RV016 was MUCH cheaper and easier to setup and I did not have to deal with Watchguard's stupid licensing issues. The down side was the combined total ports of 16 but only needed 12 so not a big problem.
Very good device February 11, 2009

I have 13 computers in my office, and 2 ISP; my cisco linksys RV016 manages both internet service.
I would like this device comes with 10/100/1000 as price of 10/100.
