I think as I understood from your explanation more as a hub because I only have one network at home.. Basic idea is I want al internet traffic on my network getting filtered first. If I am able to do that with one router(my current one) and just have to purchase a nic the better. What I don't understand is how can I filter/proxy all my internet traffic using two nic's and then rerout it back to my router?
current setup
modem(isp device) connects to my WRT160N-4poorts,+1 internet poort 4 other ports connect to my pc/other pc/laptop.
If I want internet traffic going through my pc(proxy/filter first) then going through nic2 en going into my router again so that internet traffic is filtered?
It would be setup like this if I understand you correctly: isp modem---router wan(wlan/lan)---nic1-filter/proxy--nic2 --- and then back to router?
But what I don't understand is then my second nic2 would connect to a normal lan port would have no effect on the other 3 lan ports.
So how then would then would I be able to do it without a second router. or you saying that I should get a hub or switch? instead of a second router?
But I also want to keep my wireless router connection and have that filtered.
