What about DSL firewalls?

DSL Firewall

If your computer contains sensitive data, or there are users in your home whose access you want to restrict, a useful piece of DSL hardware for you might be a DSL firewall. DSL firewalls come in both software and hardware packages. If you only want to protect one machine, a standard personal firewall software package will probably do the trick. If, however, your DSL firewall needs to protect an entire network from potential attacks, but needs to allow unrestricted access between computers on the network, then a hardware firewall will suit your needs much better.
