Hello there.  In order to share two high-speed connections, you'll need some
kind of load-balancing.  Also, the router must support the use of multiple
uplink interfaces.  Also if it supports SPI/Quality of Service Data in order
to do network packeg/protocol prioritization, that would be good.  Also,
what logging facilities does the router have?  Does it export to the
standard UNIX syslogd?  On ports that are forwarded, does it automatically
perform a DNS/reverse DNS query on hostnames?  These are all things you need
to look at.
