I am talking about a dlink 604 or similar router...that would allow multiple machines sharing one internet connection....no need to explain to him anything

even set up for one computer...it is an external firewall....no user interaction required ...other then initial setup ...and occasional reset (show him how to power it down and up again if his internet isnt working)

Blocks most of the crap out there....but will NOT prevent spyware\viris or other malware....that requires...mostly.............. user interaction.
