Set it up with WPA2/AES with a decent passphrase and you'll be be fine. Also, make sure channel selection under the wireless is set to "AUTO", as that allows the device to perform a site survey and choose the least congested channel.
He left me a Cisco DPC3008 Modem.
I'll get the router that I bought on Saturday.
OVERKILL, with 3 new Netgear routers already tried, do you think this Linksys will be better? Have you heard about these situations before?
Thank you.
