Unsure with Wan card to purchase for a new pppoe conection from head office to other remote sites,

[jomo frank]

Hello Expert,

I have some old 2811  and two  3945 routers in my network and would like to out fit them with Wan cards to do allow pppoe connection to other sites.Note this is just a short term arrangement they will all be replace by the last quarter of the year.I was looking at a 2 or 4 port Hwic card. Could you please advise if the  card can be use or if not kindly suggest  the correct type of card purchase?

I should mention for 2811 router wan interface is use and for  the 3945 router all the wan interfaces are in use.

The propose  card will be use for wan redundancy to  another service provider via PPPOE.

Regards

Hello,

the HWIC-1ADSL and the HWIC-2ADSL are compatible with both the 2811 and the 3945 routers...

Hello Georg,

Thanks for the reply, I am just looking for a card that can operate the same way like the integrated ge0/0 and g/e0/1 (wan) on the router.

Hello Georg,
I did some some checking and Cisco HWIC-2FE 2 Port Fast Ethernet High Speed WIC Card looks like the card I need
Could confirm if it is compatible with the 2811 and 3945.
