[plug] SOHO security and multiple LANs

[Senectus .]

Damned painful, convoluted and expensive. (don't forget the most
expensive cost to any network isn't the hardware or even the software
licences, it's the "overhead" of managing and fixing said network)
You'll get the same result buy placing a single nic on each machine
then a competent dual nic firewall (Linux or otherwise don't care as
long as it's a capable device).

If you really wanted to be paranoid you could VPN each PC to the net
connection.. and only allow VPN activity to be your Internet activity.
Then you can turn it on/off pretty easily.
but even this idea seems silly to me.

The real question is what are you afraid of, what are you protecting?

Microsoft and what Google is up to at this point?
Bill Gates: Well, we don't know everything they are up to, but we do
know their slogan and we disagree with that.
