I'm going to work from home soon. I will plug my work pc into my home network.
Now I still use a cable connection. The plan is to swap the cable before and after work.
I'm a bit worried regarding my privacy. Will my employer be able to access or monitor my browsing history on my private computer.
Some googling showed that it's possible to set up so that the modem takes logs of all connections on the network. I tried accesing my modem settings. I opened cmd, entered ipconfig and put the number under default gateway into the browser. It timed out.
I received my modem from my internet provider and never really tinkered with it. I suspect they disabled this feature to idiot proof their system from users such as myself. If so then fine. If I can't access it then no one else should be able to do it. However there is also the possibility that I did something wrong. Could anyone offer advice?
