I've been very happy with Netopia 3386-ENTs.

This was so funny that I had to share it:
"m0n0wall is probably *the first UNIX system that has its boot-time 
configuration done with PHP*, rather than the usual shell scripts, and 
that has *the entire system configuration stored in XML format*."

There's an excellent reason they're the first: those are both such 
unbelieveably terrible ideas, especially the PHP init scripts. 

I would reccomend IPCop, because their designers are a little more.... 
grounded.
