It sounds like you would be surfing the internet...I don't see SpeedBooster being of much use. I would even recommend an 802.11b AP and call it good. Unless your parents have a DS3 to their house, your LAN speed is probably going to be much faster than the WAN speed. Don't even bother to install SVEASOFT. Especially if this is going over to your parents. No that SVEASOFT is evil and violates the GPL, but due to complexity and stability. Why would you want to introduce that variable into what is already a perfectly acceptable product? > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill Moseley > Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2005 2:17 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: WRT54G as a router > > This is a rather basic question: > > I need to do a "parent" network installation.
