    Pity this hardware was less than impressive. It would be nice to see something like this that actually did a decent job.

    Oh, and the 192.168.188.0 block IS a standard block, it's just not often used. Per RFC1918, 192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255 is one of the 3 standard reserve ranges for private networks.

    I imagine he was referring to it not being .0.x or .1.x but I could be wrong. You are technically correct ardi!

    There is an option called “webguard” which is either on or off; it “ensures that websites visited by clients on your network are not phishing or fake sites.” Whatever that means is beyond me; apparently you have to trust Addlogix to maintain a solid list of which sites are fake or not. You cannot access the list or add/delete sites.
    This means that it will transparently prevent you from accessing sites with expired SSL certificates, valid SSL certificates that are signed for a different DNS entry than the site you're trying to access, SSL certificates not signed by a root CA, and SSL certificates that are outright forgeries. Basically, instead of getting an error in your browser you just get a 404 or something.
