I don't know whether you should keep around the Cerowrt.* domains or not, but I will point out that those prices from Network Solutions seem awfully high...

I am a big fan of www.hover.com. They're reliable, have a great web site, and the ability to create weird DNS records. Their renewal prices for .net and .org around $15 per year.

That said, the "brand"[1] of cerowrt remains well known, and perhaps doing make-wifi-fast as cerowrt makes more sense as to overall goals....
