Look for an alternative router like next generation of ISR's routers. 4
HWICs slots is maximum for ISRs. Cisco 3925 have 4 EHWIC slots and two
bult-in GigabitEthernet combo port, so you'll need only buy SFP, not
whole HWIC-1GE-SPF. Therefor you have 4 slots free for ADSL and 2T
interfaces. Performance is also higher than 2811 but also the price. If
you don't need to have all HWIC's in one chassis look at 2921 which have
one combo port or 2911.
