I found the cheap BT speedway(?) card absolutely fine (last time I set one up was about a year ago). On Wed, 6 Dec 2000, Gary Stainburn wrote:

wrote regarding [suse-linux-uk-schools] Physical Router or ISDN card?: In real terms, there's nothing in it. At most, your ISDN connection will be 128K. Even a small/medium PC with an average load could happily keep that full all day.
Sometimes, an ISDN route makes config easier, as some of them present themselves as normal modems, and thus are supported better, while others, such as the Cisco 16xx series present a normal network interface.
What's better (or no diff)? ...a physical (ie box) Router or an internal ISDN card
