Smoothwall is an entire operating system with integrated firewall so it has to be its own machine. I think he was trying to say that instead of using cheap off-the-wall routers you should use a smoothwall box.

The differances between the two are pretty minmual. If memory serves smoothwall is just based around IPtables/linux, which is what Linksys routers run. Smoothwall is just ment if you have a few spare PC's and/or parts laying around. It also allows for a greater degree of control, but 90% of users don't need it.
