I don't think that you have much to fear about someone getting in to your system. The router has a built in fire wall and is quite safe.

I have had a router on my system for over 4 years and have had no trouble with people trying to get in to my system.

Richard, Thanks for your post. Apparently I misspoke, I should have said modem, since we have two separate pieces. He does not want the modem on for fear of people getting into the system. I have just told him about turning off the SSID broadcast, so maybe that will make things easier. I certainly appreciate your comments, along with everyone else who has responded to my question. Sorry about the confusion about leaving the modem off rather than the router.
I must say that the wireless on the BN surely does work well!
Kathy
