I have ALOT of Win32 & Linux systems behind a Linksys Router-firewall  & a
Linksys wireless access Point as well.
  I vnc to Austrailia, Scotland, South Texas  and other points on the Gulf
Coast from a Win98 box ruuning an old AT&T vnc viewer Ver  3.3.3R3.
.
It (firewall) does not  have the best passthrough rate as more expensive stuff,
but the connects rarely go down if ever.

My Router/Firewall is a Linksys Model BEF-SR81 Firmware v1.07 April 16, 2003
