Try to write your 'embedded router' first in plain C & DPMI ussing DJGPP.
Once you're done with this and the program works albeit slowly you can optimize some if its
parts rewriting them in assembly (gcc enables to write assembly in C code)

THe only problem I see is whether the 'enbedded' system yuo seem to write the router for
does support DPMI?

The opposite way may not work
BTW have you checked the LinuxRouter and other router focused projects on the web ?
