Router selection

I have two ISPs and I need traffic from my servers (web, email, vpn) go for ISP1 and web browsing for ISP2. I think I have to put a router and use PBR for redirect traffic to ISP1 or  ISP2, and use PAT for ISP2.   I have a lan with about 75 users and an ISP1 throughput of about 3 Mbps and ISP2 of 8 Mbps. Which router I have to choose? Can be enough an 881? Or better 1811?

Thanks

You  should use a minimum of a 1841 for this, with the appropriate ADSL HWIC.

No, my ISP provide me with an ADSL modem, so I only need a router (without WIC) because I have to do PBR (ASA can't do that) for sending web servers to the SHDSL modem and browsing to ADSL modem

Still recommend aminium of a 1841 with an additional HWIC FE.

I am not an SE but from some quick skimming of branch office routers it appears that a 886 ISR will provide what you need.

Here is the link:  http://cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9564/index.html
