Just make sure you understand what's written on that paper they make
you sign saying that they did the install. The ass that did my
install billed me for a bunch of stuff that he didn't do, probably
because I insisted that he run ethernet cable all the way around the
house to the home office, rather than put the router in my son's
bedroom and then use a wireless bridge to the home office.

And try to get the password to the router. I eventually figured it
out, but it took me a while, and I'm not sure they use the same
password any more ("password1").
