Linksys BEFSR41 EtherFast Cable/DSL Router URL: http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=20&grid=5 E-mail this article to a friend Rating: Very Good Review: Times sure have changed. A few years ago a household with one PC and a 56K modem was pretty advanced. But these days households with broadband Internet access such as cable or DSL and two or more PCs are getting more and more common. In conjunction with that, home networks and Internet connection sharing are gaining in popularity. Until a few months ago this involved proxy and firewall software, hubs, multiple network cards, complicated IP address configurations, etc. to share Internet access while protecting your PCs against intruders. Over the last few months however a new breed of device has found its way into the home user market that is supposed to make this a lot easier and safer - the router/gateway/firewall in one box. One of these devices is the new Linksys EtherFast Cable/DSL Router BEFSR41. It offers protection for your local network with its built-in firewall, it features a built-in hub to connect multiple PCs right to the router, and most importantly, it enables you to share a single IP address with multiple PCs for shared Internet access.
