Security
You will find information about possible security risks for your device and your network 
in the Status menu on the Security screen.
System password not changed 
Your device's configuration program is not effectively protected against unauthor-
ised access as you have not changed the password since setup. The section entitled 
"System Password" on page 79 describes how to avoid this security risk.
Identification of your wireless network visible or not changed 
Unauthorised users can also find your wireless network easily as you have not 
changed the ID for your wireless network (SSID) since setup and have not deacti-
vated SSID broadcast. The section entitled "Configuration for wireless connections" 
on page 65
 describes how to avoid this security risk.
Encryption for your wireless network not activated 
None of the data in your wireless network is encrypted when transmitted and can 
therefore easily be intercepted. Unauthorised users can also easily access your net-
work, your PCs and your Internet connection by this means. The section entitled 
"Setting encryption" on page 69 describes how to avoid this security risk.
Firewall for your Internet connection turned off 
Your network is not protected against hackers who gain unauthorised access via 
the Internet. The section entitled "Firewall" on page 50 describes how to avoid this 
security risk.
Address translation for your Internet connection turned off 
The clients in your network are not protected against unauthorised access via the 
Internet. The section entitled "Setting up the NAT function" on page 56 describes 
how to avoid this security risk.
One or more of your local clients directly exposed to the Internet 
One or more clients in your network are directly visible to the Internet as exposed 
hosts and therefore particularly exposed to risk (e.g. hacker attacks). You should 
only activate this function where it is absolutely necessary (e.g. to operate a Web 
server) and where other functions (e.g. port forwarding) are not adequate. In this 
case you should take appropriate measures on the clients concerned. The section 
entitled "Opening the firewall for selected PCs (Exposed Host)" on page 60 describes 
how to avoid this security risk.
