I use Charles' dachstein distro, which boots off a CD (no hard disk to hack) and reads config off of a floppy. If you have an old underpowered box which has a bootable CD, and a couple of NICs, you can get it running in an hour or two ..
Thanks for that. It's interesting. But I guess the thought was that if, for say $100 or so I could get a router, which would...I hope...do the job I'm after, then I could really make use of the notebook - underpowered though it may be (I think it's a 700MHZ PIII) on the road.

Buy the LinkSys router......it comes in several port "flavors," but all you need is the "single" model, which sells here for around $80. It has a good firewall that you can config. with any browser.
