Re: How to set up a "prefect" router
I'm afraid I have to suggest Smoothwall :-) Boots of a CD to install (or
floppy or network install if needed) and gives you a nice modem/isdn/ethernet
firewall (take your pick), web front end for management, and it's not such a
huge download for an ISO (around 22M). Of course if you just want a plain
router and not a firewall then I would look at the Linux Router Project.
