Well they'll give you 5 bridged IP's if you don't take the routed block, so you could still run your server direct but you'd just have to have a separate firewall on each box... I am pretty sure the low-end linksys stuff is NAT-only - even if it does let you specify a real address range for your internal network. Not 100% positive of that though. I think the netgear prosafe line will do real subnets if you specify them. Otherwise, a simple linux box with iptables would be plenty sufficient.
