Beg or borrow an old computer. 466MHz, 8 GB HD, 128 MB ram should be fine. Two
ethernet cards. £10 each or less. Download Smoothwall, or similar Linux
firewall, and install. When set up, will not need mouse or monitor to run.
One ethernet card goes to computer, other goes to broadband modem. Will also
setup ADSL from a USB port. Providing the old computer does not have to be
purchased, this is a very cheap way of setting up a firewall, NAT, DHCP if
required, plus port forwarding etc.
Should you want any help, e-mail me at number36 at blueyonder.co.uk.
Cheers
Dick
