I use m0n0 as a filtering bridge for a network with a DS3 (routed by a 
Cisco), 35 servers and around 500 active subscribers behind it, and it 
has not failed in months (last failure was a power supply) I just 
followed the guide at 
http://doc.m0n0.ch/handbook/examples-filtered-bridge.html simple & easy.

The m0n0 box sits between my Cisco router and the main switch. I used 
Intel PRO 10/100 cards in a P4 2.8Ghz with 512Mb of ram, and it sustains 
30+Mbps but I tested it out at around 90Mbps sustained.
