No, they're not referred to as routers, although they
actually do perform a routing function. Linksys makes
an "internet workgroup hub" for $209 (Datacomm warehouse).
It is a four port hub with a serial port for an external
modem. There are others, some with two serial ports that
do load balancing. Don't recall who makes those offhand.
