If they continue giving away 'free' wireless routers, switches, etc...they will sure put someone out of business. Since they gave me this lot, I retired my gear. But I take your point seriously, Dan, my security at home is MY responsibility. The issue now is whether I trust my ISP to do it for me. Or, take the coming weekend to get D-WRT going on on my router. That's what I was going to do anyway, until they brought in their fancy stuff, and I got lazy about my security.
