I agree with JimX. Modem users are not at as high a risk as the "Always On" connections like Cable and DSL. Some Cable and DSL users have a static IP address and this makes them even more vulurable since their IP never changes and a hacker can really pick on you. :( Most Cable and DSL users have a Dynamic IP meaning it changes of often. So to answer your question..No, The Linksys is not a good solution for a Dial up user. I would run ZoneAlarm for dial-up. Clint
