Many people use separate routers, as they're not happy with the Rogers hardware. I run pfSense on a refurb computer. All you have to do is put the modem in bridge mode and connect your router. Also, you may want to get something other than a Cisco modem. Rogers doesn't support IPv6 on them. I have a Hitron modem in bridge mode.
My DSL modem has a firewall feature that my vendor recommends not using. I have a wireless router that serves as my firewall, and I have a long security key. I am so glad I took typing in high school. -- Howard Gibson hgibson@eol.ca jhowardgibson@gmail.com http://home.eol.ca/~hgibson
