Relocating Wireless Router?

Can a linksys wireless modem that has been set up and used on my home cable modem internet connection, be unplugged and connected to another cable modem (same ISP but different account)at another location with going through the entire linksys setup procedure again? Router name / security access code would remain the same.

    Yes, just plug in your Linksys into your other cable modem. The SSID and password is the same. Nothing to re-configure.

    x2. On the network side, your Linksys will automatically pick up an IP address from the 'new' ISP service provider. On the wireless side, your SSID/password will stay the same.
