I would start right there. If you can't get firmware updates, get rid of it and replace it. Preferably with something that runs OpenWRT or similar, or do careful research for a manufacturer that takes security seriously. Most cheap routers have terrible security, some come with backdoors out of the box [1] There seems to be a trend towards bad actors targeting and taking over routers, so this is a very real risk. 1. My router did, but I never used it with anything besides OpenWRT: http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Treacherous-backdoor-found-in-TP-Link-routers-1822720.html -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5
