[QUOTE="motox781, post: 764759, member: 35376"] I have a Netgear router running the newest version of Advanced Tomato: 1.28.0000 -3.5-140 K26ARM USB AIO-128K on a Netgear R6400 router. My question: How much more secure is Tomato out of the box than Netgear's default firmware? I used such practices as: disabling UPnP, WPS, HTTP management and created a good WIFI name/password with WPA2 encryption. Admin is also locked down with a good password. Service is on a dynamic IP. Anyhow, my question really pertains to the other features Tomato might have incorporated, if any (IPS...etc)? I don't know much about the specifics of Tomato's security. [USER=58943]@ForgottenSeer 58943[/USER] Thanks! [/QUOTE]
