Hmm.
Guess where I saw a bunch of D-Link kit?
Hint: I was wearing green at the time.

Upshot: wasn’t anything important on that standalone bit.

Yup.
All the rest of the kit was Cisco.
But now I wonder.

If you have a D-Link or a TrendNet Router (and some are built into Cable or Satellite routers, check the label to see who made your router), you may want to replace it with another make, such as NetGear or another. . . SECURITY PING!

ALL PLATFORM Ping!
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
I challenge the members of the Apple ping list to each donate at least $10 each to the latest Freepathon. I HAVE donated $100. Many members of the Apple Ping list are already rising to the challenge. Join them. Let's show the power of the Apple Ping list in supporting Freerepublic!
If you have ordered an Apple Watch,
MAKE A DONATION TO THE FREEPATHON!

Security issue in the popular D-Link and TrendNet routers like you might have at home ... PING!
You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: search on keyword "windowspinglist".
Thanks to Swordmaker for the heads up!

I won't buy D-Link after my first ever wifi router died just out of warranty from them.
Got a Trendnet KVM that acts up now and then, meaning I have to physically disco it from the 3 pcs (leaving them running), and cycling the monitor, before selecting and reconnecting each.

More along the lines of “nobody used it for anything.”
Of course, we were busy with Cisco products and talking to a satellite from a room further down.
I wonder if they replaced their internet cafe kit yet?
