For a small private LAN almost any router with NAT and some packet
filtering capabilities will do. Linksys or Asus have some nice devices.
However, you would be able to get a more specific suggestion if you
provided some more details on your requirements. Do you just want to
shield your LAN from the Internet? Do you want (some of) your servers to
be accessible from outside? Do you want to use a VPN?
