that's a ridiculous statement

Responding to the original Question the Juniper SSG 5 (Netscreen) is a
great choice for what you are wanting to do. It gives you Wireless
with multiple SSIDs, IDS/IPS, client filtering, spam and virus
filtering as well as IPSEC VPN termination.

It is going to cost you more than $200 but it is quite a bit cheaper
than offerings from Cisco.

The other you you could consider is going with a product you could
build from someplace like routerboard.com or on a software platform
such as any linux distro and use IPTABLES. Moonwall would be
something you would want to research of you were going to go the linux
route.

Hope this helps.
