[X4U] Setting up Netgear DG834G problem

[Richard Gilmore]

Not sure about your router but where I work the accepted standard seems to
be WPA-802.1 so I would see if 802.1x WEP would be a winning combination.

I have a Netgear wired router and it works quite well much faster than the
D-Link I used to have.
