Cisco 2500 series routers

[madmoggy]

Hi

I am trying to get some gear ready for my CCNA, i have been given a 2501 router, but i need to but a second, Can anyone confirm the difference between the 2501 and the 2516 routers because as far as i can tell their identical apart from the 2516 has 14 extra ethernet ports..

The reasion i ask is that all the 2516's i see are cheaper then the 2501's and it does not make any sense to me ??

Good luck to your exam for CCNA. Btw .. why do you want to know the differences for? Don't worry too much about the CCNA exam .. it is much easier these days. There are only about 55 to 60 questions if I am not mistaken, and if you're familiar with the basic configuration commands, you should do extremely well to pass it.
