Cisco 1841 & 100Mbps Metro-E?

[TheZman78]

I have a cisco 1841 running on a 10Mbps Metro-E connection. I recently signed an agreement for a 100Mbps Metro-E. I am wondering if I will need to purchase a new router to support this new connection or will my 1841 be able to handle the traffic.

Hi,

The 1841 may not be able to handle the traffic load properly. You may want to consider a 3845 or 3900 ISR2 for your new Metro-E connection. See useful link:
