Hi everyone,
I'm almost done with CCNA 4 (WAN Technologies) and trying to get a rough idea of what model of equipment would be required to pursue the CCNA Security and Voice for a home lab environment. I'd like to see how affordable a CCNA Security and Voice router would be.
The routers I was looking at was:
Cisco 2650XM
Cisco 2620XM
Cisco 2611XM
I really appreciate any insight you can provide, thanks!

One side note... if you are going to get a 26xxXM, I would suggest you get a 2621XM or 2651XM. The 26x1XM indicates two fast ethernet ports which would help you in the NA security for setting up a DMZ and using the Advanced Firewall configuration wizard in the SDM. I hope this helps!
