Serves me right for not reading all the posts before replying.

OK, forget what I said before.  Before recommending a router, I need to know
what flavor of "T1" line we're talking about here.

1.  Is it ISDN PRI?
2.  Is it channelized T1?  ESF?
3.  Are you going to be doing voice-over-IP?
4.  Are they offering "frac" T1 data with channelized voice?

These all affect your setup, so please get more information and let us know.
