I'm playing around with TP's Security Mode, which is not the default.... Per TP, What IS the Default: 'Network Security Mode': if too many packets arrive, they are passed and not scanned by TP’ .. and That is the Default... To keep connection stable... What is Stable?
Does that not seem like an Advertisement for a simple work around of TP??
“Just throw many packets at it, and some will be not scanned at all”???
But, could this be a feature for 6600, and the 2600 (weaker) gets it by default from latest firmware? Does 2600 have the available power to use this???
So, I go looking for the equivalent of Resource Monitor in the 2600, so I can monitor the CPU and Ram used by 2600 while I browse... Figuring that CPU and Ram useage would increase with more work examining packets.... And with that I could see the Router getting overloaded, and use that as a tool to test the 2600 of being able to use TP’s “Security Mode”.... ??
BUT: Don't find current CPU & RAM useage info in 2600... Does it exist in 2600????
Next... Blindly Turn On "Security Mode" in TP and will see how it reacts.... Inform Wife of a potential change in Web-Surfing, and asked her to inform of any changes..... or slow downs, and I search myself for gaps in operation.... Shields UP at GRC reacts as normal... Other browsing seems normal..... So I post here..... for Direction in this after finding no further in depth information. ???
Does anyone have history with Security Mode in TP, and wish to share? Or any other docs on this that would go into greater detail? I'm running it on a RT2600ac with V1.3.1-1
OH YES! and a location in 2600 where I could see present CPU & Ram Usage? I thought I found it once, but I could be thinking about NAS, and not the Router.....
Thanks for any comments....
