It is an added layer of protection. A NAT router is very successful in defending you from attacks that are initiated by a remote device without your interaction. However, since a large number of exploits these days require user interaction, such as visiting a website or opening an e-mail attachment ...

WPA is much better than WEP as YOSC and Ghosthunter have already stated. It also has the ability to use different authentication methods, which WEP does not. The most common for home or small office people is WPA-PSK which mean Pre-shared Key. I strongly recommend using a passphrase or a very long ...

So one of your exec's is bringing in his linksys router from home and connecting all his devices to it right? You're not the first IT department to struggle with this little reality.

Let's take a look. Some of the following questions should help us.

1) What type of Internet connection do you have? DSL or Cable?

2) Are you sharing the Internet connection with anything else besides the FTP server?

3) What version of firmware is your Linksys router Running?

4) Under ...

After reading through your posts I'm beginning to believe your router is the culprit. Automatic scrolling isn't important.

In assuming 65.32.212.153 is your router's IP? I'm timing out trying to ping it so is it dynamic or are you dropping ICMP? I'm also timing out trying to connect to it. I ...

as cyberskye said, you don't need IIS.

I would suggest removing the hostnames from your post. It's best practice not to disclose that type of thing.

NMap is as good of port scanner as you'll find. There are 3 basic states a port will be in on a firewall/router. The port will either be open, closed, or filtered. Filtered being the most ...

I'm not going to ask why you need a new IP so I'll just break it down to you. Your IP is assigned to you or your router by your Internet Service Provider via the DHCP protocol. A simple way to get a new one would be to power cycle your (turn off and back on) cable/dsl modem. What happens is that ...

Make sure that 1723 is being forwarded on to your Internet Card interface for routing purposes. PPTP has to be installed as a routing protocol on the server you are trying to connect to.

It's not inherently true that a hardware firewall 'only' blocks incoming traffic. While most people tend to view it that way, they are easily configurable to block outgoing traffic as well. A sophisticated hardware firewall encompasses all layers of the OSI model and are ideal from a security ...

Telnet uses port 23. FTP uses port 21. You may want to capture the traffic of your telnet session. You can use a variety of packet sniffers to do this, a popular one is Ethereal. You may be receiving RST or reset packets from the telnet server.

Also with either WEP or WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) you should use a long passphrase. A short key for WEP can be hacked in minutes, literally. I recommend WPA as YOS mentioned. Use AES encryption if you have a choice between it and TKIP. Always administrate your router through it's SSL web service ...

It's a script that echos information about your connection. Nothing you should worry about as it doesn't share your information with anyone else. These have been around for some time. This site even does this to some capacity.

Make sure the device you are accessing from is on the same subnet as the 192.168.1.1 address. If your computer is on a 10.x.x.x address and you are directly connected to the device, you won't be able to see the web interface at 192.168.x.x

do a netstat -an. This will give you IP Addresses and allow you to track the traffic better. As an admin your should be worried that there are numerous connections established to your server that you don't recognize on several random high ports.

For this type of assistance I recommend DameWare. Although you still need to forward a port if they have a NAT IP.

clean hit or not, you gotta protect your marquee players. If the other team's enforcer wants to put a hurt on your best player(s) they're gonna have to pay a hefty price. Otherwise you'll have guys headhunting the sakics and naslunds of the NHL.
