Everything good Ben Adida says about Vicom Internet Gateway is equally true of the excellent Macintosh shareware program IPNetRouter by Sustainable Softworks. I have used this program on my PowerMac 7200/75 for about nine months, since my IP masquerading Linux router proved to be too flaky in the presence of power outages. (No flames, please. It's the simple truth.)
IPNetRouter does everything that I can think of wanting a software router to do. Furthermore, it has several advantages over VIG. 1. It supports unlimited clients. 2. The online documentation is excellent! 3. It's shareware. Try before you buy, for up to 30 days. 4. It's cheap: $89 for a one-gateway license, or half that price if you are an educational user.
In this era of slow, buggy bloatware, IPNetRouter is refreshingly small, fast, and reliable - as well as full-featured. And it's shareware, so you lose nothing by trying it.
