"yes" or "no". "yes" is much # easier on CPU usage, but may not work for you. It is safer to use # "no", but you may want to experiment with "yes".

Here's how to decide: # - If you have only a SINGLE computer connected to the ADSL modem, choose # "no". # - If you have a computer acting as a gateway for a LAN, choose "1412". # The setting of 1412 is safe for either setup, but uses slightly more # CPU power.
