It's more a privacy issue that security for me. I have a similar setup with a virgin cable router, which I set to what they call modem mode, where only one of the ports works and connects to my router. The one time I ran tech support they were able to see that I was using it this way and even reset the modem for me. I suppose it makes life easier for them and their typical customers, but it was a little unnerving. -- Neil Bothwick One of the nice things about standards is that there are so many of them.
