Home Network Security Warning - Should I worry about it?
« on: May 15, 2016, 11:39:32 AM »
Hello,

My ISP just replaced my router, because older one just failed to work this morning. I've got the same brand, ELTEK router, which is provided by ISP exclusively and is configured for ISP (with custom firmware). avast Home Network Security after scanning new network device ended with this warning I never had before with older router.

The problem here is there is now way to disable IPv6, neither enable router firewall for it - there is no such settings in the ISP's firmware. Should I worry about this warning? I am not a pro at networking, but there is no way to change settings in avast offered way in my router.

Thanks for help or advices  ;)
