If you're connecting to the K4 from outside your LAN, a VPN would always be
an improvement over port forwarding -- it'd make inevitable security bugs
in the K4 much harder to exploit. Do be sure you secure the VPN itself

Ladies and gentlemen,
Perhaps this is old news to some however I thought it worth asking before my

vulnerable is it to malware, bugs, worms and bad internet stuff in general?

Yes, the modem router and a second router in the granny unit both run on
AC power, so they were off. There is no wired LAN to either the

Hi Paul,
While the decision is of course highly individual, there are many good reasons
to upgrade to the K4.
Most obvious among them: the K4’s quantum leap in user interface. Second is
perhaps the expansion of digital audio interfaces, including HDMI video,
multiple USB ports, and ethernet.
Congrats Wayne and team on the K4 evaluation.
The two other responses do somewhat beg the question about what happens to the
