Alix is a great solution.

I've setup a few of them and they have proven very stable/trouble-free.

Alix + PF is an extremely high value setup.

I did run PF on the cheapest PC I could build at newegg ($275USD or so) with a number of intel NICs from ebay for 6 months or so, until I found the Alix2c3. While initially a little harder to setup, the Alix has proven to be a much better solution in terms of size, power draw, ease of maintenance, stability, etc.

The Alix can do what? Close to 50 MBps, IIRC.

80-90, probably.

So, for 5 MPs, a used WRAP could do as well.

If you can get one, it's EOL http://pcengines.ch/wrap.htm
I thought my WRAP ran hotter than my ALIX now, but apparently
it's also only 3-5 W.

I've got 5000/500 here and the WRAP was never the problem.
I swapped it out for an Alix, though.

To bad that the pound lost so much, or you could get two used WRAPs for
that amount of money ;-)
