That's bad news, but barely surprising. Last year I realised that my own router hadn't been patched for at least five years, which was definitely cause for concern. I decided to try and secure as much traffic as possible, so I decided use SSH for transferring files on the local network. People I know thought I was being paranoid, but hopefully not anymore. :-) I just recently discovered my router can run OpenWRT, so I might give that a go. Andrew.
