I agree with all of the above (I love my little alix2c3 firewall and it 
was definitely cheaper than a soekris, less than half the cost for three 
interfaces + USB), but the OP is complaining about slow USB speeds... 
aren't the ports on the alix just USB1.0 also?  I think they are (not 
near mine to check right now...)
