Hi all,
I have a new comcast "gateway" and it has two ethernet ports on the back. One of the ethernet ports goes to a vpn box that is connected to a work computer. The other ethernet port goes to my home computer. I'm just wondering if those two ethernet ports communicate with each other or if they are independent. For example, say I were to purchase something online using my home computer - could that credit card information be viewed by an "IT" person using the other ethernet port? Are there steps needed to make my home computer secure?
