Linksys BEFSR41.  Simple, cheap, & just works.  Amazon has them for $50.  Web 
interface for setup (not lynx-friendly, though).  I've bought them for my ex, 
ex-inlaws, new girlfriend, new neighbor... and mom.  Basically, if someone 
asks me to secure their computer, the first thing I do is stick one of these 
in front of it.  

It's not open source, it's not wireless, and it's not going to be as effective 
as a dedicated box.  But it's much, much better than nothing.

If you want a cheap dedicated box, the Linksys WAP54G wireless is only $66 on 
amazon and runs linux.  Probably a time sink, but could be a lot of fun.

Best, 

Barry
