Hi,
I have the router in my signature. It does not have WAP security I'm going to upgrade to a Wireless G router with WAP2. How hard is it to employ the security? I have been reading the threads and it is unclear to me what needs to be done to the PC that is wireless which in my case is the laptop in my signature. I have concluded nothing has to be done to the PC's hard wired to the router, am I correct? What router would be the easiest to configure, as I'm going to go out and buy one?
TIA
