If you linksys will do that, yes it is perfect ... mine has very limited port forwarding capability ... it only forwards a port (say 22) to the same port on one machine. No way to set more than 1 external IP or port forward 3333 -> 22 ... 3333 -> 3333 only and 22 -> 22 only. That is how mine works :(
