Steven:

You might want to look into the "Freesco" (Free Cisco) software router.

http://www.freesco.org/index.php?id=d

It is a special purpose version of LINUX that makes a PC (386 or
better) act like a router. It's been a while since I played with it
but it is quite flexiable and can deal with all kinds of hardware
(NICs, Modems etc) that you can hang on a PC. You can also install
"Packages" that extend the capabilities. The latest version can deal
with VPN according to this page:
