In addition to the above: 1. Old hardware are not green! For about USD$120 and 5W, try: http://www.pcengines.ch/alix2d13.htm 2. Shorewall current version is 4.4, 3.x is now "obsolete". 3. USB devices are 1.1 and can't use the faster 2.0 version. Despite all the of the above, still using leaf as firewall. Thanks!
