I recommend you to stay away from the 24e3:s if possible. Try to get the
48si instead if you can. The 24e3 does policing, and it does it badly. The
48si does real shaping if you need it. The 48si is a very nice box I'd
say, good price point, good options.
If you only need 10 or 100 and never need to sell 50 meg or so, then the
24e3 might be an option.
