Which Routerboard for small office routing?

Hi,
I’m new to RouterBoard and my personal RB705GL is only arriving next week.
A friend of mine is starting a new office with about 20 people and is looking for a dual-wan gateway/router.

My local reseller only has the following models:
RB1100 and RB1200
RB250GS and RB750GL
RB711
RB433AH and RB 433UAH

the same RB750GL would be great for such small office (if you don’t need wireless).

Pardon my ignorance, can the 750GL be configured for dual-wan load balancing routing.

yes, of course.

ekhoo: it should be noted that using RB750GL don’t expect to have ipsec performance better than 8-10Mbps.

yes, it doesn’t have hardware encryption acceleration, but that only matters if you do need to use IPsec on the device
