Is this article an accidental reprint from 2002? Heck, even Osama Bin Laden has wireless internet in his cave. There must be something more current to report about in the world of WiFi, no?

Talk about bad advice. So, most ISPs have terms of service prohibiting sharing your WiFi with neighbors. And sharing the payment for the ISP monthly fee between different unique households is also a violation. And counseling people to avoid WiFi protected setup makes no sense. If you want a good N router, you get what you pay for. buying a used router that probably does not have firmware newer than 2006 off eBay usually means you are buying someone else's problem device.
