Wow, that's nice work!    Being able to do IPSec on the Actiontec box,
at DSL speeds would be a great use for the little box.

I see a lot of references for AES testing on ARM processors, but I
didn't find any available code.

In my previous experience with a product in the x86 world, AES offered
performance similar to DES (with security more in line with 3DES). 
So, it should offer quite a good boost in throughput.
