Ok... I have a question for all of you network geniuses out there. I have been contemplating the purchase of a switch for my home network. I have 3 PC's that need to be connected to the internet with my cable connection. I had thought to buy that Linksys Cable router, but I realized that I have quite a few network cards and enough parts to build another PC (p200mmx) and thought that maybe I could throw all of the extra NIC's into this new box, drop Linux on it and use the machine as a proxy/router/switch. Is something like this feasable?
