i wound up getting the dir-655 extreme dlink router
and i love it for just surfing the web on my laptop.
and keeping it as a firewall.

it did take me a while for me to understand how to get it up and running but i love its firewall rules,and everything else about it. as well as other features that my
Linksys did not have.
it took me a while to get my Linksys with vonage working behind the wireless as well.
Although i keep my main machines BSD and Solaris
wired my Boyfriends is on a wireless.
i from time to time use an adapter from a laptop using XP as i dont know at this time how to use it on BSD or Solaris.
