Cisco updates the software model EA2700, EA3500 and EA4500. The changes are highly controversial. In theory, the new firmware allows you to access the router from anywhere. Great, comfortable and dangerous at the same time.
New firmware forces the user to create an account with something called the "Cisco Connect Cloud", so this is a service in the cloud. If it's in the cloud - Cisco has access to the data to be sent there. In addition, routers can automatically upgrade to the latest version - without asking for permission. The problem is that Cisco Cloud Connect provides very user-friendly provisions, which everyone must accept. And it says that if you are using does not have permission to view pornographic websites, or download copyrighted files without paying for them. In addition, Cisco can track the traffic and the history of the Internet sweep, and if you do something wrong - lock your router manufacturer.
