    I hope you don't plan on doing any online gaming or downloading anything besides email or webpages.

    Make sure you enable either WAP or MAC address filtering unless you want people stealing your bandwith. It really does happen, and quite often.

    It's set up. Seems faster-- even through the usual afernoon lull.

    One big problem: my printer won't work. Any ideas as to how or why this would happen?

    Is your printer plugged into the back of your computer or the router?

    It used to be plugged up to the computer. To get an answer to that question, though, I'll have to get a flashlight and kneepads.

    That guy better not have unplugged my printer and left me printless.... well, in fact, he has left me printless.

    I called RoadRunner and they handed me off to HP who is now closed for the evening.
