I've been using wi fi for 2 years now. my ISP is Comcast, and I use a cable modem. my router is linksys / cisco, model type I forget for now. have 3 pc's, one direct attached the other 2 wi fi. no issues as long you have a firewall running on each machine (I use zone alarm) and keep the OS up to date (i'd like to someday bill msoft for that time wasted) and use an AV. also recommend using an adware product like lavasoft to get rid of those pesky little data miners. unfortunately we now have pc hygiene's to worry about. also turn off msoft messenger (a must!) and don't forget to change the password on the router! you'll be fine upgrading.
