[QUOTE="Gramek, post: 1744304, member: 387871"] So it's likely better to not mention Mac as long as possible or else ISP guys get lazy and blame it all on that.. but if you don't mention it, they keep giving Windows advice. :D Again, thank you for giving advice regarding that modem security issue. For years I saw modem as infallible box that can't be security compromised and suddenly I hear it can have vulnerabilities. :D But ISPs should know about such issues and fix them when they come themselves and I shouldn't worry about things out of my hands? :D [/QUOTE]
