Clearly a good recommendation is the PePLink MANGA which runs Debian.
It has 5x Ethernet ports, and a UBB2.0 Controller (VT-6212).
The MANGA Debian has Sarge installed and running out of the box.

The MANGA Plus can be very simply converted to run Debian.

In contrast to some other companies, (who's product must be hacked to be
opened and hardware drivers aren't open sourced) PePLink has the right
attitude to Open Source, and fully supports open use of its platforms, and
provides a full source SDK.
