You don't need a powerful workstation for this.
Believe it or not, a Pentium 133 will work just fine for what you are
talking
about. My router gateway (including dial-on-demand) is a P250... run level 3
sunning Suse 9.2 --- works great.
You do not need expensive hardware for this, and you don't need it to
be
particularly *fast*. You might consider a commercial wireless router
though... not a much fun as setting up your own linux box...
