Just looking for some advice on setting up a better home network. Currently I have a cable modem which goes to a Linksys wireless router. All of the wired connections are being used and we have two laptops that can access it. It is using the software that came with it. The software is horrible and I can't get any other wireless devices to be added to the network. The kids are getting a Kindle Fire and an iPhone for Christmas (grandparents are generous). I know I'll be in trouble if they open that stuff and theres no wifi for them.
Everything I read says I should put ww-drt software on the router, but if I'm reading the list correctly, my router isn't supported. Is there any other good (free) options? If I try to install the software on the router and it doesn't work, can I revert back to the current stuff?
I'd also like to make sure what I have is reasonably secure. Currently using an antivirus program on all the computers, is there anything I should add?
