Really of course your cable/asdl connection won't give you 10MB?
Should confirm what your provider can do.
For example I pay extra to get upto 7 Mb download speed.

You seem to be mixing up Mb (mega-bits) and MB (megabytes); there's an 8:1
difference between the two.



However I'll point out you can buy a 160Mhz PC from your local junk
shop for on the order of $50
plus a pair of pci ethernet cards of $20.  That would get you a
faster firewall. Still that would cost $70 or so.

OpenBSD because their mandate is security.

There is also Astaro http://www.astaro.com/. They used to be free for home users. I don't know if they still are. They even have a Bulletin Board at
