It sounds like you want to use NAT.  Stick another NIC in your Linux box and 
configure it as your gateway.  All of that is rather simple.  I'd suggest 
these documents:

http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html
http://www.linux-ip.net/html/

If you want to load balance across your three public IPs or do traffic shaping 
across the wireless link, that's more ARTC.
