Do anyone have wireless and Adelphia cable? I can't figure out how to hook
up my router to give me wireless access for my laptop and Dell wants a
couple 100 dollars to help install their product.

I can't speak for Dell's routers but usually it's as simple as turning off
your cable modem, turning off the router and turning off all computers.

Plug a cat 5 cable from the Internet port on the cable modem to the
appropriate port on the router. Turn on the cable modem, and wait for all
the lights to light up, turn on the router and then turn on the computer.

If you use XP you need to go to Start, Settings, Network Connections, and
tell the wireless connection to search for available wireless networks.

After you connect, you should rename your router, change your password and
set the wireless security settings to WPA2. You may have to Google to find
out how to do this.

Hope it helps.
