Setting up a new wireless router at home and I was trying to come up with a new name for it. Finally decided on Elantra-Gamer.

You should not identify yourself on your network identification. It should be stock, or completly obscure so that noone can target you. I perfer stock on G channel 1,6 or 12. those are the only good choices for using a wireless channel. Those three channels are non-overlaping in the USA. for N, you should use wideband channels 3 or 9.
Linksys? It doesn't make it hard to identify YOUR connection in a network on 10 other Linksys devices? Also, I would think that's a better target and more likely to have easy/default passwords still enabled.
