Decided to upgrade my old 5 year old cable modem. Got it recognize my computers.

A few differences from when I was setting up my AEX wireless though. Two things that I haven't been able to do, and hope that someone cal help.

1 - Can't get WEP setup. Thought I had it setup via my Wintel laptop, but the Mac's see and access the net net without a password.

2 - Can't change the SSID (network name) like I could on the AEX.

One interest note. I was able to setup the AEX on the WCG200's ethernet port so I have security there. It does appear that the WCG200 has better throughput than the AEX does. One of the reasons that I decided to do a new cable modem that is wireless.

Thanks
