Subject: Cable Modem security
I've seen alot of talk about cable modem security (or lack of) and I've got
an interesting twist to the story. I'm curious if anyone else has run
across this.I have cable modem service at home. I have a firewall set up and
occasionally I connect through a VPN tunnel to a local office or to the
corporate office to transfer files or to download email. Well....my cable
modem provider just changed the subscriber agreement. Basically it says
that if I use a VPN or a VPN tunneling protocol on their network my service
will be terminated! I can't believe that I'm going to have to change
providers because I'm protecting my data!Has anyone else run into this?
