I haven't used that one, but here's another Linux router (freesco -
rhymes with cisco) that is extremely easy to set up.

Copy image to floppy, it prompts you for some simple information and
you're up and running in 10 minutes. Works great for me.
I took a quick look at LRP and it seemed to have more "features" (I
didn't need any of them), but it looked more difficult to set up.
