·Verizon Broadban..
| All of you are missing one important point If ATT Bans NAT/routers then they open themselves up to a hole new relem of lawsuits due to hacking. Everyone knows that more hackers sit on cable than anywhere else. NAT by its nature provides security from port probs, root access,etc "you know the list goes on and on" If ATT does this then they will bear the burden of providing this security to their entire user base at no cost. Hell they can't even supply 1500/128 much less montior your and everyones connections and filter every hacker/port prob out there. Right now if a hacker gets threw your NAT/Firewall its your job to track his access,stop hime and then report him. If ATT tried this all I see is lawsuites, lawsuites, lawsuites. If "and I will never be a att again" I were a ATT user and got hacked I would be the first one in court.
This just shows that in that board meeting that they either totaly left out the security OPS rep or he/she is clueless as what this could bring.
Don't expect this to live that long as soon as the legal team figuars out that with this policy brings a high amount liablty.
