Install with iptables, get a firewall script(easier), edit the variables. usually to tell it what interface points to the big bad internet, and which is to the lan.
then launch it, would be a good idea to add the script to one of the scripts that launch on boot.

This give u full control to what to let in and what to dump.
And it is much cooler then a damn wee plastic thingie from shop-e-mart

this would prolly not cost you more then the price of a network card or 2.
ol computers can be found just about anywhere, for free at a local electronics recycling plant for example.

All good and well but a poorly maintaind firewall is useless aswell.
I have seen a couple off people set up linux firewalls on their own, then they start learning a bit of linux on them 3 months later the box is trivial to crack.
