Re: [fw-wiz] Residential Gateway vulnerabilities

Probably been discussed (to death) before, but I really like the Soekris series of boxes. Very low power requirement, inexpensive (compared to other gear), good performance and can really run! m0n0wall distributes a flash image on a flash card specifically for their hardware.

I have Debian on mine as a home router, with iptables, openvpn, fail2ban, dhcp3-server and a few other nifty packages. From my experience the VPN will push about 8Mb/sec - which is more than the downstream limit on my cable and WAY more than the upstream.

I prefer to put the modem into transparent mode and do the
firewalling/NAT using something with more firepower. IPCop (Linux) and
m0n0wall (FreeBSD) are both excellent, free and need relatively low
end hardware. Also quite easy and quick to setup.

Folks -

Does anyone have a good source of information on vulnerabilities in OTS
residential gateways?

Specifically DLINK & NETGEAR?

no new news here but I was getting flooded with inbound traffic so I
powered my cable modem down for a while. within 25 seconds of power up with
a NEW IP address, I was getting scanned again. Oh, and the best part is that
the source IP was 10.10.10.10....
