I have two computers behind a Linksys router. I had a cable internet for some time but I am not satisfied with the service so I have decided to switch on DSL. Before I make a switch I would like to know will it create any problem with Linksys router and my home network. Will I have to change some configuration?

If computers and router are set to automatically acquire IP addresses and DNS server addresses you will not need to make any changes. When you switch to DSL you will only have to reset router or renew IP address. The same thing goes for computers. You will have to release and renew IP address. If you are lucky you will not need to do even this. Everything will be handled automatically.
