Hi all,

I'd like to setup a small home network therefore I plan to buy an old
(cheap) PC to act as the gateway. The hardware specification is
CPU: Pentium II at 433MHz
RAM: 128MB
HDD: IDE 4GB
LAN Card: D-Link 538FE

Internet connection is a slow one below 512Kbps and there is only one
other node than the gateway in the network.

Is the configuration enough?

Thanks in advance,
Bahman
