Is HTC ExpressNet secure?
HTC ExpressNet/ADSL service is a dedicated connection to the Internet. The ADSL connection uses a common protocol, TCP/IP, to communicate over the Internet. TCP/IP is the protocol required for computers to successfully exchange and share information over the Internet. Security issues can arise when an ADSL user begins using other protocols, such as: Net Beui, IPX/SPX, or other protocols commonly used to communicate over Local Area Networks (LAN's). Since ADSL is a dedicated connection to the Internet, it is or can be a dedicated connection between ADSL users. If customers use only TCP/IP on their computer, security issues will be minimal. If a customer begins to use protocols commonly used with LAN's, their system may become exposed to some or all ADSL users, opening up security issues. Please review your proper computer configuration.
