what do you mean it doesnt work?
usually you'd go like : http://route-lan-ip/ and you'll get the admin.

Making linux/unix a router aren't too far off. Same basics.

1) enable ip forwarding (linux=procsys,solaris=ndd,bsd=sysctl)
2) set routes, either statically or dynamically (routed for rip, zebra for ospf/bgp/whatever)
3) firewalling, if needed (ipf/iptables)
4) natting, if needed (ipnat/iptables)

Kapeesh?

there are a couple of ready solutions for it , u may take a look at floppy based routers and the like , freshmeat or google linux as a router , but angoranimi said it all , waiting for ur results
