What interface cards, DSLAM platforms, and CMTS platforms do you recommend for use with CDRouter?

Installation

QA Cafe recommends the following network interface cards, DSLAM platforms, and CMTS platforms for use with CDRouter setup:

Ethernet

Most ethernet cards will work under Linux, but if you are adding new ethernet cards to your system, we do recommend the Intel Pro cards. The cards are available in single, dual, and quad port versions. They are also available for different types of PCI connections including 32 and 64 bit. Please check your exact PCI slot specifications before ordering.
