Thats the current setting. I just wanted to make sure it wasnt the other one. Thanks for your help!
You would need to contact your Card Company for help and information regarding CC theft. I would first look at sites were you used the CC and have the Card Company review there processes. Be sure your using a good updated web browser.
Make sure your browser connections to these web sties are secure by looking at the address bar. You should see a pad lock and HTTPS in the address bar. This means the connection and web page is secure.
Ensure your Wifi SSID name and PW is using WPA2 and AES on the modem.
Not much else you can do from the modems configuration to secure things.

Did exactly that with cc. Looked over statement online, nothing unusual. Mostly amazon. Idk. Here's my settings, can you look them over and make sure I'm not overlooking something:
Access Control: Off
Block all new devices: Off (should I enable these two settings even though it requires a password?)
NAT: ON
IP6V: AUTO CONFIGURE
PORT FORWARDING: ON
PORT FORWARDING: ALWAYS
WPA2-PSK (AES) OR WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES)
UPnP: ON
sorry Im new to all this! Huge learning curve!
THANK YOU!
