While we are not in the business of recommending hardware, I personally 
upgraded my main AstLinux box to the following:

Jetway NF96FL-525 Dual Core Atom

http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:board_jetway_nf96fl-525

and test using a second spare box.

You will have to put this system together yourself, I bought the pieces from 
http://www.logicsupply.com/

Around $400 US complete.  3x to 6x faster than a net5501.  Total power draw 
about 25 Watts.  Requires AstLinux 1.0.x
