May I suggest a Linksys instead, with a non Linksys image? The device
runs Linux, and the non default image (google for the one you want,
there are a few online) will allow you to do almost everything a layer 3
device needs to, and then some.
ssh, traffic control, web management, a real packet filtering firewall
instead of a pure NAT.....
