Avoid using proxy software unless you are certain that it is not open for
abuse by other Internet users (some are shipped open by default). Crimi-
nals can take advantage of open proxies to hide their identity when break-
ing into other computers or sending spam. If you have an open proxy, your
cable company may suspend your account to protect the rest of the net-
work.

If you connect your Telephony Modem to a wireless LAN, make sure you
enable security and encryption on the wireless hub (for the same reasons
that you should run only secured proxies). Consult the documentation and
technical support of the wireless equipment provider for help.
