Good thought and it is good for me to know this is out there however I need to put in spacific latancies in communications such as a half a second. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
If we can find a reasonably priced hardware wansim, that will work also. &nbsp;<br />

We need a wan simulator for testing and the results will be published product data. &nbsp;We are trying to use Nistnet on a Dell 1850 however it does not seem to like the hardware. &nbsp;We would like to stay away from the 50,000$ or more hardware solutions because we need at least 3 of them.<br />

We already have about a week tied up in trying to get nistnet to work on our Dell 1850. &nbsp;There was Nistnet out there as a VMware virtual machine however it appears to not be available any more. &nbsp;<br />

Can someone help us out ? &nbsp;<br />

We need a wan simulator like Nistnet, it has to be depenable and hopefully inexpensive.  Linux, Windows or Hardware simulator

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.

Linux Networking

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

Networking Hardware-Other

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
