I'm getting this message when I try to set up the MN 700
Base station. It recommends that I restore the factory
settings (I did that), and remove internet security
software. Would this include Norton Antivirus?

Are there any other suggestions to get this set up?

You need to uninstall firewalls (and, yes, Norton) -- once
you disable them they don't actually stop running. You can
reinstall them after installing the 700.

An alternative is to install the 700 manually. Using IE go
to 192.168.2.1. The default password is admin. Configure
the WAN screen first using the ISP settings until you get
Internet access; configure the TCP/IP properties on the PC
to obtain an IP directly from the "server".

Once you can get on the Internet, configure the wireless
and security/wireless screens. Then install any wireless
cards you use.
