Yes, and I like it even more after setting up a Freesco 
firewall/router/masquerade-er next to my cable modem.  One very bad 
note:  The goons that did the installation did just about everything 
imagionable wrong, not the least of which was to leave it to me to 
get it working to my then only-online 'puter (W98, sorry).  Don't 
agree to an installation until you're satisfied where they are going 
to put the wires (get it ON PAPER!).  And specify that they are not 
to cut any existing cables!
