I bought a Netgear router and was good to go. I installed the package myself which at times was confusing but easy once you understand whats going on.

You can pay to have someone set it up for you but if you have patience and good computer know how, then give it a try yourself! Signal is good from upstairs to downstairs also. Worth not paying a cable company to set up 2 networks.

Along the lines of a cable company� many companies now allow you to rent wireless routers and have that be your internet service for your household. They set it up to which is nice for us that have no clue.
