@I am still oxox...Macs aren’t targeted as much simply because there aren’t as many MAC users as there are PC users. Attackers attack where they have the greatest impact. Many Mac users often mistaken,y think “Macs can’t be infiltrated”, but unfortunately they can.

I checked this out the other day, when I saw it on another board.   My model wasn't on the list but I may restart it, anyway, as it's been a while.

 

When I had ATT Uverse, I had to restart their router almost every day, so I guess that, even though the service was horrid, my router was safe.  Smiley Very Happy

I would think the cable and internet providers would do something to protect their customers

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.
