I am going to be setting up a box to do NAT with my Ameritech ADSL (Alcatel SpeedTouch USB modem) and I was wondering if there was any reason that I should use FreeBSD with ipfw/ipfilter ( I don't really know the difference) rather than Linux with iptables? I fully admit that I haven't really researched the two options throughly and I've only setup a very basic one rule NAT configuration for my friend. I was hoping that you all may have some insight as to why or if FreeBSD makes a better NAT / Firewall box.
