Last week, we installed a wireless router for our Power Book (OS

software that is recommended or should be avoided?
The built-in firewalls on both XP and OS X are adequate.
Is there anything to keep in mind or to watch for when setting up
the firewall?
In both cases it's pretty much 'turn them on'.
Also, your router is providing NAT from the cable connection to your
local network which isolates your local network.
