    This is all I can find: (and I'm not even sure that I have a "smart" router.......I'm on hold with Tech Support as I type this.)

    How an Upgrade is Done
    To avoid affecting customers during peak usage hours, upgrades to the smart router firmware are done during off hours, between 1am and 6am during the week only.

    • During this time, the smart router should not be powered off or disconnected from the cable modem; this could cause the router to stop functioning.
    • During the upgrade, the smart router goes through a series of steps and will reboot; this process may take three to five minutes.
    • You are unable to access the Internet during the upgrade process.
    For more information about features and functionality after the upgrade click here.

    Well, just got off the phone w/ Tech for Optimum....they handle all the security upgrades automatically....nothing for the end user (me) to do. He stated that business customers are at much more risk. I rebooted the router anyway.

    I would have had to go home and change my shorts.

    Nice pics though. Not to often you get the oppotunity to be so close.

    will711 On a serious side, any plans on securing that dumpster so STB's cousin won't be making any repeat visits? I would tend to think that him (or her) coming back to scrounge while members are playing might be "not so good".
