Remote access to router? Security concerns?
Every router that I've had so far has, by default, not permitted WAN side access to router settings etc to protect against unwanted intrusions.
I've just now setup the Deco as a router (was previously in access point mode) and can make configuration changes remotely to the router settings. Whilst this is convenient, I'm conscious that this represents a potential security risk compared to a traditional setup.
What safeguards are in place? tpLink have access via my router to all my domestic traffic (should they wish) as the cloud service links them through to my router. Am I overthinking this, or is this a concern that others share?
