RE: Router security
It's quite possible to get past a firewall or even a secure connection (HTTPS or other SSL) if the attacker uses an exploit known as ARP Poison Routing. Every computer on your network is represented by a MAC address, not an IP Address. IP Addresses are mapped out to MAC Addresses in a table in both your router and every computer on the lan. You can see this table by running "arp -a" in windows' command prompt. Anyway, if someone else on your LAN were to send signals to you and your router saying "I'm XXXXX IP," then all of the data would suddently be going to them. A little re-routing, and all of a sudden you've got an easy way to monitor someone's traffic over a LAN.
