Too much trouble :-) Install binkd on the router and put in/outbound, log and links on a net drive.

Exactly!

You can buy inexpensive routers with 128MB RAM, a few MB Flash and an USB port. Add an USB flash memory stick or a net drive and you'll have a nice system. Or wait a little bit until the market offers more ARM based routers (dual core, 1GHz, and more RAM) which are supported by OpenWRT.

Markus
