Hi Cristy,
A wireless Router is Hardware device which uses cordless phone technology to
send the signals from the DSL or Cable modem to your computer and at the
same time act as a firewall.
Here are some links to learn about the wireless and other routers;

I use both a Hardware Firewall and Zone Alarm Pro.
I hope this helps.
Mike ~ It is a good day if I learned something new.

It was suggested to me by an online friend to d/l zone
alarm and use that. I just read this email on zone alarm now
and am wondering it it is the best choice for me?

Hi Robert, I am afraid that I do not even know what a LinkSys Wireless
Access
Point Router is? So I probably wont be getting it lol..
but I would like to know what it is. I think I used zone alarm
a few years ago when I had DSL but cannot recall now,
I know I first tried something called black ice that was
told to me later to be no good, and I think I switched to
zone alarm after that but that was like three years ago so
do not recall it alot.
