Rather than paying gigabucks for a hardware router/firewall, take an ancient machine, add a second ethernet card to it and install OpenBSD onto it.OpenBSD will do you as well as anything hardware based, in terms of protecting your network -- even if it is bit more work to get properly configured. You can also then install stuff like Snort and wireshark to REALLY watch what your system is doing.

(or just screwing the schools over by selling them a product that they're about to orphan, which is probably slightly more legal, but less moral).
You must realize that the computer has it in for you. The irrefutable proof of this is that the computer always does what you tell it to do.
