Thats what I would do--make sure you call sales@livingston.com to get the
latest ISP pricing on our routers. If you want to do a one off, you can get
the OR-HS for a relatively low price. When ChoiceNet is released, you will
also be able to offer some content monitoring services to the school, should
they wish for that.

Hope this is helpful.
