Re: [Cable] Which router to buy for DCM 476 modem?

N56U:

N66U:

66U has more features (such as ipv6 which Rogers doesn't even support), and can double as a media server. Its essentially the upgraded version of the 56U. Its alright.

Just make sure to disable the WPS button.

I know it has more features but its more than $200. What is the WPS button and why should I disable it?

Long version:
I'd recommend either reading through Leo & Steve's Security Now, or watch the episode itself:

Do a search for WPS, and then start reading that paragraph & down.
