This Might Make A Good Site Faq.

OK i have thaught about it and this tread was not about.
Whether or not i have POrt 21 25 110. open or not open.

This post is about the high ping times.
That users Experince.
Using A 2 Wire Modem/Router.

[user=koma3504]
Maybee the slow ping times and others
that say there speed seems slower
when they are using a 2Wire Modem.
See Pic the Portals send out a
constant packet.
going to serching for these
<b>ports 139 445 you will also get.
packets for this port range also
Related Ports:
1024, 1025, 1027, 1028, 1029, 1030 </b>

These packets should not be enabled by default.
All it does is Lag your
Connection and Computer especialy;
If you do not have any File Shareing Enabled

Oh by the way this Opera Browser Rocks!!!!!!!!!

So this needs to bee incorperated in to
A new Firware Version Available to
EveryOne Reguardless Of ISP!!!!

If You will take the time to hook
somthing else up behind the Portal
That Is not 2wire you will see the
same above results in my first post
To this Thread.

Labeled 1StSubject 2ndSubject.

And as one can see i do not even
have netbios enabled anywhere.

Further more The tcp Stack has been
Stripped of every thing.
Besides what I need to connect
And browse the internet.

I will further more say to the statements.

Oh no the 2wire can not be comporomised.

Well to this All i got to  say about this is;

BS It is a webserver hosting a
freebsd operating system.
Running a dhcp server.
With back door capabilities.
This makes it NO diffrent form
any other OS like linnx,Unix
Windows etc....

I have had 3 of these type
units Compromised.

[user=IPTV]
I've checked against my own config,
and I only have port 22 (SSH).

To this i say that you would not
be runnning a standerd
KeyCode on you Portal.

With that said why dont you log in
to your Portal on port 22 ssh
And try running netstat on it
to see how often it calls home
or what your live connections are.
As a rule I do nothing without
netstat open.
Now this is not to say somthing
could not be hidden.
For Example
somthing could hide from netstat -n 8
But may not hide from
netstat -ano 8 or netstat 8 .

I stand by this comment.
Ports 139 and 445 are for file
<b>sharing and networking.</b>
And for security reasons it is
safer to do your own Port forewarding
if you need to do any kind of file sharing.
It sends these packets pretty much every second so;
For the Technicaly Advanced One could see how this would;
Could And Can Lag You.

These packets should not be enabled by default.
All it does is Lag your
Connection and Computer especialy;
If you do not have any
<b>File Shareing Enabled</b>

Oh by the way this Opera Browser Rocks!!!!!!!!!

So this needs to bee incorperated in to

This Little War of what ISP is going to;
Provide over the other one.
Persay Enhanced Fetures.

It totaly BS and i will stand behind;
This the Goverment needs to step.
in and say <b>enough already.
What is allowed for one is allowed for all.</b>

Its like Discrimination Cause you use said ISP.

Like the 5100b has a intrusion detection;
system built right in to it but is is;
disabled by SBC and other ISP's.

This is there reasoning Well if we;
let you have the <b>Xtra fetures</b>
To make you more Secure we would have
to charge you more.
And provide Tech Support for it.
So they dont.

When you can Free help here at this Great Site.
Speed Streams Site. 2wire Site all for free.

The enhanced Fetures in the;
2wire if SBC Or any Other Isp;
Is not going to dilly up and offer them.
Then 2wire needs to make available;
on there website.
The Ability to purchase said Fetures.
Which Should be enabled.
By defalt for every one.

The Parental control.
This Is for All the parents;
That want to do the responsible;
thing and limit their Teens;
what they can and can not see;
on the internet; or can and cannot do.
They may not be as litterate as some;
but if they can atleast lock it down;
at that level.
Just maybee perhaps there wouldn't;
be so many teen age script kiddies;
out there. wrecking haveick on the internet.

Lets speculate on this.
Sbc says oh but you have the
Parental controls in your
Sbc/Yahoo browser that breaks apps.

OK so if one dont use that web browser your Scre***

If the manufacture of most
Products for the Avarage user.
Has Enhanced Fetures On there Products.
Just Cause the ISP either does;
Not want to support it;
or Just plain and simple does not;
understand how do to support.
Does not mean their is not support out there.
This should have a;
Regulation against this type of Regulation.

There are so many Users.
Out there Say Non savy computer users.
Grandma Grandpa Aunt UNcle.
<b>the list goes on and on.</b>
That go out and buy the grap;
that most computer manufacures produce.
That install all kinds of adware force;
products on them.
Thats a back door in to the systems it self.
They plug and play these Computers.
When they start to run <b>SLOW</b>
Well they dont know why for one.
And most PC repair shops will gouge;
you in one way or another.

Computers are no longer Plug and all play.
Its Just like a car!!!
If you dont keep the maintence up.
It wont last.
If you dont lock it up!!
like you do your car or home etc..
It will be
<b>Owened/Compromised</b>
Used by others besides your self.

This brings me to this.
ISP Tech support will tell you.
You do not need to run a <b>software firewall</b>
On your machine.
Since you have a 2wire it is a firewall.
So goes The <b>Average User</b>
Either turns it off totaly;
UNistalls Said Firewall.
Making them more Vurnable.

Their Should be a regulation Against this as well.

You get
Hacked or Compromised by what;
you over look to lock down.
The minute you think you are;
unhackable then you will be Hackable.
