As long as your talking about routers, someone suggested as an added security wall, even though I have no server, just a few (total of 3 macs & 3 regular pc's), I should add a router. Isn't a router just a dumb box which lets data through, and no firewalls or security sniffers? Presently I have a AT&T wireless DSL, but do plan on switching over to Comcast Cable Modem.

Thanks,

Almost all wireless routers for consumers include firewall functionally these days.
