Would it be possible to turn the Rio Receiver into a Ethernet-to-HPNA “bridge”? By the end of the year I will be purchasing one of the following: Xbox/Playstation2/GameCube/ReplayTV4000/TiVo2/etc. as a reward for graduating. These devices only have Ethernet ports and I don't want to shell out the $$$ for an Ethernet to HPNA bridge. Since I plan to have a Rio Receiver in the same location any ways, why not use it as a bridge.

What would be involved? Would I have to upgrade to a 2.4 kernel? What are the issues with building a 2.4 kernel for the RioReceiver?
