I am buying a router for the first time to protect my
small office "Med" , and I see that there is a big price
diff., and all I can find out them is a $50 NAT is
for "Comsumer Use" and the $5000 Cisco firewall are
for "Business". I can not find the tech diff. Dos someone
know the diff. in the two. (Why dos one cost SOME much
more)

Configurability, flexibilty, expandability and features. Not to mention
name brand, support and product life expectancy.

Explain your needs and perhaps the people here can come up with suggestions.
 
I'd say for a small med office with no mission critical services, the $50
one is sufficient (if it dies you can always replace it). Go with Netgear
or LinkSys.
