After seeing the reports on CF of download speeds being affected by the router, I did a bit of research, which opened my eyes.

Throughput and multiple connections are a problem for cheap routers. As speeds and multiple downloads etc increase, this is a growing concern.
I decided to use IPcop as a replacement for my safecom SBRU 10100, which has proven faultless.

Anyway, does anyone have experience of IPcop or similar non windows on old hardware firewalls?
