    I recently got this modem from BT, anyone know how to put a password on the network so nobody can just tap in to my wireless network?

    Cheers for that.
    I've set up a key but for some reason I have to enter it everytime I go online, can I set my connection up to remember the key?

    Have you RTFM...?

    What hardware are you using to connect to router and what software? (eg Windoze Zero Config or S/w that came with card as it is here the problem most likely lies??? :(

    I have just got BT broadband supplied with a ZyXEL 660HW-61.

    The Wireless link kept dropping from almost full power to zero (as measured on the LAN adaptor on my PC. I ended up logging into the router disabling the wireless LAN and then connecting a borrowed netgear wireless lan router and using this instead. This seems to work fine, although the ZyXEL seems to drop the ADSL connection reasonably frequently.

    Two things I'd be grateful for :-
    1) How do I fix the dropping wireless link on the ZyXEL?
    2) Is there a much better ADSL modem/Wireless Router one can buy? I bought a netgear DG834PN and upgraded the firmware but could not even get this to connect.....

    Thanks
