I can second that about the router, though it only works if you have
an external ADSL modem.  At CES this month in las Vegas Linksys had a
a similar router that also had built in net2talk internet telephony.
It provides long distance server for 3.9 cents per minute.  It looked
like fun.

If you still want to use win98, I believe that win98 Second Edition
provides IP Masquerading.  I've never used it, however.
