First of all implementing RT ethernet driver gives you nothing in this
context, because you will just get reliably data and will be able to reply to
them in real-time (fast) but to do routing you have to pass them to the
network subsystem of normal kernel anyway. You would need to put the whole
Linux routing code in RT - quite big task. But I do not think it is neccesary
for your task.
You may look at "Rether" http://www.ecsl.cs.sunysb.edu/rether.html
