Nope, can't really be done since you want stability and reliability.  ICS
will work, but it is not the most dependable thing in the world.  Why not
use Linux?  Before I got a cable connection, I used Linux, pppd, diald (to
connect on demand) and ipchains to do the NAT functions.  It worked
perfectly, once I got it set up right.  ;-)  Months would go by with no
problems.  This gave all my pc's internet access simultaneously, and
fire-walled my stuff.
