Hi John,

As Duane pointed out, check the Linksys WRTSL54GS.
It has a Broadcom CPU BCM4704/264 MHz with 32M RAM.
If you load dd-wrt on it, under Administration -> Management -> IP
Filter Settings you can set the number of connections and the timeout
for each type of connection (UDP/TCP).
Also, it comes with several settings for QoS.
If you need more than this, you can ask for support from dd-wrt.

ASUS has a similar device.


Regards,
Ovidiu Sas
