The problem with DD-WRT is that as far as I can tell it only works on
WRT-routers, I don't have one of those I can mess with. As far as I can

What about using an old computer?  If you need wireless then it has to
have the bus to take a wireless NIC but if its wired then almost any
computer will do.

What is it you need your router to do?

Doug.

Allow 3 computers access to the internet plus my Vonage device. One of them is a server and there should be a firewall to stop/deter hackers. Wireless would be a plus, but not strictly necessary. I do have an old PC that could be used, would I need two NIC to do this? Or could I just use one?
