    Me too not know about how do that you wand, but I'm agree with Tony, you ca
    use a old PC to do that job, also you can use it like proxy server (with
    squid) and speed up your web access.

    good luck.

    I've never heard of such a thing. You could do this with a cable modem, but
    that's because a cable modem generally has a CAT5 port that you can connect
    directly to a router. If there is a device that does what you describe, it
    is probably expensive enough to make you reconsider setting up a Linux box
    to do it instead.

    Keep in mind that the slowest Pentium box you can find could handle NAT and
    firewalling for more users than you'd want to put on a single 56k
    connection.
