hi all,
My question is, does using a router mean it is more safe to use the internet and download things?
Reason is I currently have a wireless router, DI-524UP. However, the wireless seems to be not working as there are constant drop outs (meaning I can't even access the route setup page unless i reconnect). So I used the LAN cable. Now there are even drop outs using the cable (so i have to pull it out and put it back in). It became so annoying that I just directly plugged my cable into the wall socket and it works perfectly fine!
Now my question is, is directly plugging it into the wall unsafe? I have mcafee antivirus and firewall on my computer and my computer is the only computer in the house.
Thanks
