[c-nsp] Router recommendation

[Brian Desmond]

The 2851 is probably a bit overkill for this job. I'm inclined to
believe a 2821 is probably more than enough for what Bob is trying to
do. His bandwidth requirements are combined less than a full T3. 

An HWIC-4ESW will do the trick for the customer LAN port(s). 

Thanks,
