[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 450146, member: 6967"] TBH Phil most of your post is completely wrong. Zen are very good, I would recommend them. I don't see how better known means they are a better ISP. BT are probably the best known, they aren't great. Sky are very well known, they are one of the worst. Zen are relatively unknown (but very well established and have been around for years). They are one of the better ones. It is unlikely there was "no firewall". The alarm would be outbound so no need to open ports. If someone has been adding/playing with the outer it is likely that they had no idea what they are doing so resorted to just opening all ports. There is also no way that there was "no way to access the ports on the router". I can almost guarantee you that there is not a router on the market that comes with all ports in and out wide open. I think the phrase "blind leading the blind" applies here. [/QUOTE]
