Wrt54G is a FW appliance?

From: Duane Arnold <notme@notme.com>

I am being told that because the WRT54G Linksys NAT router uses NAT,
IPtables, SPI and proxies it is now considered to be a FW appliance like a
Watchguard.

I'll give it to the WRT54G that it fits the category of a packet filtering
FW router, unlike the other Linksys products that I have seen and used but
I am being told otherwise.

Anyone have any comments on this I would appreciate it?

Duane :)
