I do not have a LinkSys router it is a Motorola SBG1000.  Which I am just 
waiting to find a different router that provides the same features as the 
Motorola, but with better built in Firewall.  It has a built in 4 port 
hub/switch, Print server, 802.11B Access Point and a cable modem.  The cable 
modem is great as it never drops, but the rest is mediocre to crap.  If 
anyone knows of a reasonable replacement I would appreciate it.  Thanks!
