Add a 2nd NIC (and wireless card) into your oldest/slowest (expandable) Linux box and make that into your firewalling router. (You might have to buy a $50 desktop, though, and make that the router.) Or if that's not physically possible or maybe too noisy, buy any one of a number of supporters wifi routers and upgrade it to a fully functional Linux system. http://openwrt.org/ http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware?action=show&redirect=toh - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.
