NAT:
In computer networking, network address translation (NAT, also known as network masquerading or IP-masquerading) is a technique in which the source and/or destination addresses of IP packets are rewritten as they pass through a router or firewall. It is most commonly used to enable multiple hosts on a private network to access the Internet using a single public IP address. According to specifications, routers should not act in this way, but it is a convenient and widely-used technique. Noneth

RE: Internet Security - Computer information hidden?
A router doesn't hide your IP, what the hell is the difference if you have one or not?
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true. |
