I am looking for some kind of network device that would serve as a Router, print server Wireless access point and be able to handle T1 or fractional T1.

Anyone heard of anything like this?

Not for a T1. There are some like that for Cable or DSL.

Dang, well I suppose you could just get a T1 router and hook it up to the nic.

Thanks anyway!

Why would you want to go for a T1? At the cost compared with broadband it may not be very cost effective.

T1 is a requirement for what I'm doing. I am installing a remote site with 20 or 30 users connecting to a remote Citrix box. I really thought Cisco would have something like this, but I didn't see anything on the web site...

I would talk with Citrix about whether the T1 is needed or not.

But I do believe you will need a router to connect into the local authentication server. You can then run a WAP from a switch connected to the router.
