i went for a 4 port conexant jobby, from dabs.com.  built in 4 port
10/100 switch, firewalling (but no VPN) and DHCP enabled.  quite good,
havent had much go wrong.  its not terrific, but its cheap, and i see
they've comen down in price now:

do a quicklinx search on dabs, for: 17P8WS && 17P7WS

the only complaint i have with it, is i cant run ipsec thru it.  it only
supports tcp/udp port redirection, which is fine for everything else.

 We're not any better; we've got our own set of nonstandardisms.  
 Just not those ones.
