Greetings DarrenM
Can the CG3000 be hacked to tap into the telephone port that is used for the telephone I/O and make calls bypassing the use of the connected telephone instrument. This would mean that the hacker would be able to hijack the line and make calls using the phone line.

Hello bobz88
I am not a hacking expert so I can not really give you a answer on this but I have not seen any vulnerabilities like this for this modem.
