I think I will use shorewall so.

Thanks to all for helping with this decision.

As you pointed out, firestarter is easier for the beginner. However if
you ever plan to have multiple DSL (or other types of lines) and need to
manage traffic across the multiple lines, shorewall is probably the best
way to do that.
