[QUOTE="notabot, post: 847132, member: 75970"] My shortlist for home WiFi is [LIST] [*]Whitelist MAC addresses of your devices on the home network. [*]Use a guest network for guests [*]Block printer from connecting to the internet. [*]Disable UPnP/ NAT punching [*]Change default password for admin [*]Change default password for WiFi [*]Disable WPS [/LIST] Add to that updating your WiFi firmware frequently and get a WiFi device which also acts as a UTM ( while it's still meaningful technology to use anyhow ). If you do the above, you've cut out most common attack vectors, I'd say no need for a scanner, the UTM functionality should already offer that. [/QUOTE]
