A 50-EUR-off-Ebay PC can do that easily. And even if you go to the
"off-the-shelf-real-routers" (actually not "routers", but "optimized
forwarders with routing component") then you can have them quite
cheaply... looking at JNPR J-Series and Cisco 1800 series that should
be doable well below 2000 EUR.

I doubt that the 2501 was much less expensive back then. :-)
