Too bad you didn't spend $69 on a router with a switch in it, like a
Netgear, instead of wasting all that money on NIS2002. After it didn't
alarm for 6 months at all, I dumped everything except Norton
Anti-virus and let the NAT in the Netgear RP114 do its thing. My
cable modem and router WAN port have been going crazy all day, today.
Must be come new kind of DoS attack, but I haven't bothered to look.
Of course, none of the LAN lights are blinking when they're not
supposed to...(c;
Sure runs faster without all that FUDware sucking up all the CPU
time.....
