Wrt54G is a FW appliance?

I am being told that because the WRT54G Linksys NAT router uses NAT, IPtables, SPI and proxies it is now considered to be a FW appliance like a Watchguard.

I'll give it to the WRT54G that it fits the category of a packet filtering FW router, unlike the other Linksys products that I have seen and used but I am being told otherwise.

Anyone have any comments on this I would appreciate it?

Duane :)
