Are you aware that SunRocket's Gizmo (the InnoMedia SIP MTA 6328-R) leaves WAN ports 80 and 23 open for all the world to access? As if that's not bad enough its setup doesn't let you turn off this type of WAN access with the firmware that ships with the Gizmo. And as if that is not bad enough SunRocket does not tell you any of this! This is just outrageous. If you're going to do business with this company put their Gizmo behind a router. At least change the gizmo's password. As for me, I'm shipping their gizmo back tomorrow and going to get my money back.
SunRocket is an Immoral Company

Sounds more like they're technically clueless, rather than "immoral".
"Try never ascribe to malice that which can easily be explained by negligence".
Understand the security concern and agree the unit should be behind a router. Putting it behind a router also saves bandwidth (don't know why but try it run speed test before & after)
If port 80 is open, that would seem to indicate there might be a way for us to 'user configure' it. I'd love to reconfig Ethernet port to fixed 10mb rather then 'autosense'
Have you called their support? Web access is an option which they can turn off.

I'm not sure this is as big a deal as it was made out to be. If you want to shut that opening, simply call SunRocket. Their service is very helpful and friendly. I'm sure they could help you out.
They told me it had to be open so they could service the device. I've sent their device back and am awaiting my refund. I'm not going to be involved with a company that careless or clueless.
