Joey,
From what I've read, a 486 can give you 10Mbit performance and Pentiums and
above can give 100Mbit throughput.
I have a Pent 75 that I use for my Cable firewall and have not seen any
bandwidth degradation (almost 2 Mbit) , but I can't speak to latency (for
gaming) but I've heard there is no problem.
I don't think you'll have any trouble with adding this machine as a gateway
on a DSL line.
