Hi Wladston,

Not wanting to put you off a Gumstix, but have you looked at the Asus
WL500gx? It is a wireless router with USB ports and it also acts as a
network switch.

It can take a USB disk, as well as acting as a host for printer
sharing. 


You can get more info at: http://wl500g.info/


HTH,

Phil
