 along with various routing protocol’s I can say that whilst they require some learning they can be rock solid. As with most things it’s not the kit that’s the issue it’s the people running it. Running an open Cisco/Juniper device with telnet/ssh/web and a
 weak password can get you in just as much trouble. I find a lot of criticise of MT’s come by way of users who can’t operate them which leads into situations where because of the price point you have people running around being a “WISP” not knowing what to
 do. I’m sure if you could pick up a MX80 for $300 people would think poorly of them to.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>
Seems a popular solution of the moment is to move to MikroTik routers for core routing, specifically the RB1100AHx2, or perhaps their 'Cloud' router that is newer. Since they are so cheap, it is not hard to purchase multiple and have them in a load balanced/fail
 over situation.<br>
<br>
In terms of DSL Aggregation, I believe the upgrade path in the Cisco world from a 7200/7300 would be to the ASR 1000 routers. I could well be wrong though.<br>
