Bill,
The 3800 series is an excellent router - more then likely a hell of lot
more processor then your 7206 (depending upon your NPE processor) plus
the 3800 has built-in hardware for encryption.
I truly believe that you will be really happy with the 3800 series. You
will see the 3800 run rings around the performance of a 7206.

Subject: OT: Internet Router
We are currently thinking about downgrading from a Cisco 7206 for our
Internet facing router.
Does anyone have a suggestion on what models would work for this? We
only
do a default route via BGP.
I've been looking at the 3800 series but I'm not sure how good it would
be
for this role. I didn't see too many options between 3600 and 7000.
I guess the only thing I would be worried about is processing power. It
looks like the 3800 series can hold as much memory as we currently have
in our 7206.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx,
Bill
