2 edits |  Home networking experts? - I also hope they do security
Besides home networking help, what most home users really need even more is a security audit. That way their home systems can be made somewhat secure and the flood of bot controlled computers can be cut down somewhat. That not only helps the home user, it helps the ISP, and it helps the whole internet improve.
They really should be selling home security audits as a service. That could bring real money in. Especially for those parents who are technophobes and who have kids that poke holes thru home networks either on purpose or by accident.
EDIT: I do see that Cox does offer a separate Virus detect, clean, and setup protection service as well.

| I agree.
You would not believe the number of PCs I've serviced where the owners downloaded some kind of "free" system maintenance program that offers to keep your identity "safe" ,your web surfing "anonymous", and cleans out adware, only to find out that it is adware/spyware/malware/etc. infested itself.
Of course then there are the owners that have the various McAfee and Norton antivirus programs that were installed ages ago, haven't been updated, subscriptions expired so you can't update it; but yet, they have antivirus "installed".
