I would just like another level of protection. ISA has served us well,
but is the only layer of protection we have now.

This is for our office - not home. I hear good things about pix but am
not sure if this is going to make things too complex to manage.

Thanks for any further thoughts.

Is there any particular reason you want a hardware firewall in front of
the
ISA?

I'd suggest el cheapo used PIX off of ebay.  If you're worried about
mass
packet processing, that's the way to go.  Not nearly as buggy once you
start
hammering away at it with a production network.  Use the best tool for
the
job. Like using that Belkin as an actual hammer... =?)

If this is a "home" thing, then just run the ISA..... Don't make thing
more
complex than you have to.

I am looking for a cheap hardware firewall to sit in front of ISA.

I have a belkin 4 port router / firewall ($50) at home and it is soooo
close to being what I want. The immediate issues I see is that the
virtual servers cannot specify which external IP it is listening on...
oh and there is a pretty mean bug that is preventing me from setting the
ip properly on the virtual server.

Beyond those issues it is highly configurable (and could likely be fixed
with a firmware update) and I am looking for something similar.

Any suggestions are appreciated...
