What is a "firewall rule group"? When recently trying to install an MP3 player on my laptop, I was met with an error message that read "Operation Create Wireless Firewall Rule Group has failed," followed by Microsoft error code 0X80070057.
I've searched around but haven't found much info on "rule groups." What is a firewall rule group, and is my wireless router somehow interrupting my hardware installation? Thanks!

I want "half" of a captive portal. Basically, I want something that would take any http requests and return a sign webpage. I don't need any authentication or routing to take place. Any suggestions? [more inside]

I need to set up a wireless network at home. Here are my parameters:
I have one business computer (the main desktop) that is plugged into the cable modem and has many firewalls and will not be on the wireless network.
I want to have a reasonably secure but easy to use wireless router (with good range) that will work for both pc's and mac's hooked up to the cable modem.
What is the best router to use and will I run into trouble with the desktop/firewalls? I've set up a network with an airport before and it was very easy. I'm looking for the same experience.
thanks!
