Looking for a new Linux router. Buffalo AirStation?

After 13 years, I think it may finally be time to replace
the PC that's been acting as the router/firewall between me,
the Internet, and people looking for Wi-Fi in my neighbourhood.
I've heard that Buffalo Technology ships DD-WRT pre-installed
on their devices, so maybe that's what I want. But I have a few
questions--so I'm hoping someone here can help answer them
(*someone* here must have one of these things, right?):
* What I have right now, and what I really want, is basically
- 2 separate wired interfaces, both of which are distinct
from the wireless interface
- a bunch of iptables rules to route/firewall between
those 3 different networks
Will one of these Buffalo let me have that?
* Checking the listings on Amazon.com, I see a bunch
of different AirStation models with different prices
and different numbers in their names, but I can't tell
what the actual differences are other than their names
and prices. Help! What's the different? Which one
do I want, if any?
* Do they work well?
