Recently switched from DSL to a cable modem and noticed
the DSL setup on the Linksys router didn't have a static
IP address, it was using a host name. After switching to
cable I now have a static IP address. I setup the IP
address on the WAN side putting in the static IP, DG, SM
and DNS settings, my concern is this, is the server more,
less, or the same concerning security after switching from
DSL to cable? I ran a port scan on the router and verified
all ports are blocked and there's no response to ICMP. I
guess now that I have a static IP address I'm more
concerned if someone tried hacking their way through the
router. Unable to install ISA this weekend do to reasons
out of my control and can't afford to have the server down
all week without hurting business production.
