At the very least be using a router with Syslog & ipfilters setup so you can log what is going on.

Hello all,

Although, I am an expert on Hard Drive's I am a nub when it comes to
routers, well at least a novice. Right now my work has a Netopia 22447 NWG

router installed for a DSL access.  


My boss keeps telling me to strengthen the security on the router.  Well,
the password was changed and wireless is turned off. There is not much more

I can do, that I know of.  


1. Would an additional Router added to the line between the Netopia and
Network switches increase security without slowing down internet traffic? If
it is a viable solution, which router should I get?

3. Make a Linux Box using Unbuntu and a Router between the Netopia and
Network switches?

Let me know what you all think,
