In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.43.0203120939090.9902-200000 () mail securityfocus com> Thanks for the informative post. My company relies heavily on our broadband cable access, and as Technical Director I am responsible for maintaining a secure and reliable network for our employees. Information like this helps us by giving us a little more leverage with our service provider. Instead of "Hi, this is 'blah blah' my cable modem seems slow today" and the resulting "We'll send a technician out tomorrow", I can say "Hi, this is 'blah blah'. I just noticed a sudden network slowdown and it looks to me like somebody on my subnet might be hacking their cable modem. Could I speak to a network administrator?" Information like this can help reduce network downtime from the typical day or two expected from a cable company to an hour or so and save thousands of dollars in lost profits and wasted time.
