Hello,

 initialy I was suspect of such a blanket statement like:

 Linksys routers have a wide security hole.

 But, after some research I must admit that it can be confirmed.

http://www.grc.com/sn/sn-335.txt

 seems to be a transcript of the
GIBSON RESEARCH CORPORATION http://www.GRC.com/
SERIES:  Security Now!
EPISODE: #335
DATE:  January 10, 2012

which seems to be simular to the mentioned pod cast:

<!-
Leo Laporte had his security guru discussing this on the January 14 2012
episode of his show. If you search on the Leo Laporte website you will find
this podcast. The relevant info is about 30 minutes into the podcast.

It is a long read but informative.

Thank you -M for passing the word.

It is called a router. Linksys makes and accessible unit employing a web

Good morning,



I forgot what the box is called to network your computers. I have one
through my cable company but it is not very secure. Is there any out there
that is accessible with jaws that is easy to set up.



Thanks in advance



Kathy
