Hello you can actually block web sites on your computer but no on your router because it Is just for Internet transmitting so it does not have a memory so if you want to block some thing you can do it on your computer.
Unfortunately the Motorola SB5100 SURFboard is not a wireless device. The Linksys you are trying to connect to is most likely someone in your area and they have it password protected, which is why it is asking for a password.
In order to setup Wireless you will need to invest in a Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, or some other Wireless Router. They can be found at any computer store.
Once you have the wireless router you can connect an Ethernet cable from the Motorola SB5100 SURFboard to the Wireless Router. From there follow the instructions for the Wireless Router you purchased to set it up and secure it.
If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it and give a testimonial for my response.
No - one it is a modem, the other is a router.
The modem 'translate' the data as it comes into your network.
Routers connect computer (direct traffic).
No, the SB5100 is just a cable modem, not a wireless router. You will need to keep your sb5100 but you will need to purchase a wireless router if you want wireless on your laptop. If you can also plug your laptop into the sb5100 via an ethernet cable for your internet connection. Linksys and Belkin and others make wireless routers that you can use for your wireless connections.
