I have a Seranoa WANPort running in my network, it handles 12 DS-3s,  
channelized and converts the HDLC or Frame Relay DLCI frames into  
802.1q VLANs on a GigE Interface.  The box has been running in my  
network for a couple years now, it works great but I only have 1 DS-3  
full right now.  I've heard of problems when you fill it up
Seranoa support was spotty at best,  I haven't had to call Whiterock  
yet so I can't comment on their support.

I've never had a problem with my WANPort in operation, I wish Seranoa  
survived because this is truly a neat product.
