Hi,

This _may_ be possible if m0n0wall supports the particular chipset of USB to Ethernet adaptor you use, however I very much doubt you'll get acceptable performance. I would expect a laptop of that age to only have USB 1.1 which runs at a maximum of 11 Mbps half duplex, giving you at most 5 Mbps of throughput if you're very, very lucky.

I really wouldn't say it's worth it, unfortunately.

My idea is using same laptop as monowall router with the help of USB hub and 2 USB LAN Cards. Is it possible ? Any one can suggest me that is it possible.
