I could recommend the net5501-70 by soekris [1]:

It's configured as router between intranet and dsl-router and runs a 
transparent squid-proxy.

Installed via tftp and dhcp. You need a serial cable for console-redirection.

The hardware has no fan, so it's very quiet. I run it with a 2.5" sata-harddisk 
but it is still quiet.

Greetings,

Rainer
