Router

Most businesses do not go router shopping. Typically they inherit a router from their Internet Service Provider, whether it's cable, T-1 or DSL as part of the installation. The client is "happy" because it's "free" and that's where the story ends. But that's where the client is vulnerable.

In almost all cases, ISP techncicians do not touch any equipment beyond that router. They configure the router for the internet access and that's it. In most cases the router configuration is not optimized for your network needs, such as Voice Over IP Quality Of Servce.

Although routers provide a form of security they are not really securing your business as the ISP sales person will vaguely imply. The most common mistake we find with our new clients is that they have no real firewall in place because they were under the impression that router was also a firewall.
