I was mainly thinking the LAN side. I do not mess with the ISP; the 
usually have all the tools and time to crack down on customers. I don't. 
I might try the daisy chain thing until someone comes up with a great 
way to 'play' with these things. These are old b routers and would not 
bring in anything, really. Part of the reason they're with me...from 
those who moved on to better and bigger routers.
