I did my own, too. There's more to it than you think. Firstly my internet provider BT also provides premium rate TV channels via multicast, so that was fun. igmpproxy isn't in the latest couple of Ubuntu releases - i'm currently rewriting it in Golang so to spare others the pain. Secondly, there's other things you take for granted - upnp for example, which is not great for security by default but my son would kill me if he didn't get decent XBox Live online play. Then you've got the usual suspects - DNS, DHCP, traffic shaping per device, a DMZ for friends devices without access to my LAN, Unifi controller, the generally shitty quality of Ubuntu packages etc etc. It's a useful exercise for learning and i'm glad I did it, but it is definitely more work than sticking a Ubuntu install on and enabling ip_forward in sysctl.
