I had no idea a router could be such a versatile tool. This series has been a real eye opener for me. I have set up my own home network and secured it without the benefit of series 101 but I think that series (and probably series 201 as well) should be required viewing for anyone setting up their own network. Looking forward to the rest of 201... thanks guys
