Subject: IIcx and MacBSD as a gateway

Is there any list of holes that I will encounter if I try and make my
NetBSD box into a gateway? I was also wondering if NetBSD is far enought
along to make it into a machine that will be able to relogin to my isp.
I have a static IP address but every so often my isp will disconnect me
(I am using Vicom's Internet Gateway on a StarMax 4200 right now and it
automatically will reestablish my connection). I am very very very new
at BSD and have a Mac IIcx which when I run the Vicom Internet Gateway is
only able to provide about 1.4-2k max throughput while on the ppc it
works at the maximum rate. I want to know if a IIcx just won't go higher
then the 2k or if I would be able to get that with a less bulky system
like BSD.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Paul
If there was a way that it should be Why isn't it that way?
The box said "Needs Windows95 or better" - So I bought another Macintosh!
