Does Router Itself Provide Security From Virus

Mar 8, 2011

When one sets up a wireless network, do devices that use the Internet wirelessly benefit from increased security because their connection comes through a router? I thought I heard this from a tech podcast. I don't mean security from hacking, such as having a password, etc. I mean that the router itself gives some security from virus.

Can A Router / Modem Get A Virus

Dec 20, 2011

Can your router or even your modem contract a virus? Wouldn't it have to be designed specifically for that router/modem? If it does is there even a way to remove it? I have wondered this for a while, mine doesn't though.

Jul 6, 2012

We have two network (one have internet access and other doesnt have) within a same office and some pcs are connected to both the network using two NIC. So i am planning to implement a router in between those network and as it implement default routing so we can share all the resources. make both the network secure from virus as one of the network should be worm free. What i personally think that implementing a router will reduce worm replication.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Get E4200 To Not Provide Itself As DNS Server To DHCP Clients?

Dec 27, 2012

Is there a way to get the E4200 to NOT provide itself as a dns server to the DHCP clients? I have the unit set up to provide two dns servers to the clients, but the 4200 always provides itself as a third and it uses my cable providers dns servers. I am using a dns based filtering service to prevent certain material from being accessed within my network as the first two resolvers. So long as both or one of the provided servers is working it doesn't fall back to the unfiltered third, but I would prefer to remove it entirely.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G TV Does Not Provide Any Specific Error Message

Feb 13, 2012

My WRT54G router is already feeding 2 wireless PC's with no problem.  Haven't been as successful getting my new Samsung Series 7 TV wireless connection working.  The TV screen prompts for a 'security key', but once entered, tells me the connection is unsuccessful.  The TV does not provide any specific error message - just tells me to re-enter the security key and/or re-start the router (which I have done many times with no success).  I am entering the 'Encryption key' from the WRT54G router when prompted by the Samsung TV for the 'security key'.

No Internet After Virus

Dec 11, 2011

I'm having is I used to have a virus on my computer, until running a number of scanners to get it off. I'm pretty sure it's clean at this point, but now I've ran into the problem of not getting any internet from my ethernet cord. I've tried plugging in another and it gave me the same problem. I've tried running WinSock hoping it was just a registry problem I could fix, but that didn't seem to work. I also tried running "ipconfig /all" in my command prompt and got this error: [code] I'm running Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2.I'm at the point where I'm considering just reinstalling Windows, but I figured I might as well ask someone who knows better than I do of a better alternative.

D-Link DIR-615 :: Don't Want To Provide Internet For A Network

Feb 8, 2011

The ONLY reason I bought a router was to get connected to my Security DVR.  I don't want to provide Internet for a network.  Maybe someday but my only wish right now is to be able to view and control my DVR with my computer.  It is hidden away and hard to get to at the moment so a Lan connection would be great.

I tried direct connect with a Crossover cable between the DVR and my computer.  The network was reporting as "Connected" but I could not see the DVR much less view the video.  Their support said they'd never heard of this configuration.  Could not understand connecting without Internet and wasn't sure if it'd work without a Router.

So, first I bought a wired router(EBR 2310) because I didn't need or want the wireless aspect.  I followed all instructions until it came to Internet connection setup.  Then became lost because I don't have a dedicated ISP,  I'm using a USB modem for connectivity.  I don't have a static IP so could not enter on.  So, backed out of setup and entered the IP of my computer to be 1 higher than my DLink routers. 192.168.0.2.  Gateway .1, NO dice.  Router not recognized.I called support and stayed on the line over an hour.  Finally he said the unit was defective.  It would not assign IPs theough DHCP.  We ipconfiged, pinged reset and all.

I took it back and got an DIR615, hoping it might be a little better.  Same problem.  Computer says Connected" but when I ping it,  there is not sigh of it.  I have manually assigned IPs, DHCPed it reset it rebooted my computer, but still no sign of a router.

Using Virus Scanner Over The Network?

Sep 22, 2011

using virus scanner over the network and this is related to my workplace. a pc with win xp can share all drives (including c:) over the network with another pc with win xp as well. let's say pc1 and pc2 (both with win xp). i can scan pc2 from pc1 once i hv shared all the drives. but for win vista n 7, i found out that it is not possible to share c:...yes, there are some ways to share it but the entire c: cannot be shared. n i also know that c: cannot be shared entirely due to security purposes. but can i bypass this only for virus scanning purpose? i know many will juz ask me to install the anti virus on the infected pc, but if possible i want to scan it over the network. if i hv to scan 20 PCs at the same time i find it easier to do it from a single pc than to install the anti-virus at every single pc.

Today I got the Win 7 virus on my laptop and did a system restore under safe mode and downloaded malwarebytes via pen drive from another computer and did the full scan and nothing came up.

No Internet Connection After Removing Virus

Jan 2, 2012

I encountered a similar problem of no internet after virus removal.

a) IE shows "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
b) MSN and Skype do not seem to respond as well
c) My laptop is connected to a router and I'm able to access other PC on the LAN, but not anything requires internet access
d) The LAN icon on the taskbar shows my PC is connected to both the router and the internet (but internet just somehow doesnt work)
e) Proxy option isn't enabled
f) Booted my Win Vista in Safe Mode with Networking, internet doesnt work as well
g) output from ipconfig seems ok; able to ping gateway ip
h) checked the list of network services posted on this thread; they're all started
i) Removed my antivirus program and disabled windows firewall; to no avail as well
j) MSN repair suggests that there's firewall/ dns issue that causes MSN couldnt connect
k) Both wired and wireless connections used to work; but both not working now
l) Other PCs on the LAN are able to connect to internet
