I am a fan of Linksys: solid products and good C/S.

Most routers come with step-by-step instructions on how to do this on the router side, and the Wii/DS have simple interfaces for doing it on that side.

Take it from me: make sure to write your encryption key ON THE ROUTER. Use a P-Touch labeler or something that will not disappear. You lose that key and life becomes a challenge.

I know: I've done it TWICE!
