True. I also have a firewall between me and my router. I use gol/e-access. 
Which brings me to my question:

Does the router-type modem provided by have telnet access? It's my belief 
that it doesn't. If a router doesn't have telnet access, doesn't that make 
it that much more difficult to hack into?

My paranoia level is average, and I figure if you can't even telnet to my 
router you'll have have a tough time hacking into my LAN. But that's just me
