There is sometimes an interesting difference between what you can get to
work consistently and what is Cisco supported. I misunderstood the
question, I thought what was being asked was whether the 2800 series
supported NM's...

So, If i were to get NM-1FE2W, it would support it?

This is what cisco's website says:

Q: Which network modules are not supported on the Cisco 2811, 2821, and
2851?
A. Table 3 shows the network modules that the Cisco 2811, 2821, and 2851
routers do not support.

Thanks,
