Case in point: a few gigs back we got hit by Slammer on the inside

Not trying to open a rathole, but are any of ya'll dealing
with "consumerization"? ("Bring-your-PC-to-work," etc.)
Everyone wants to connect their iPad or phone... so we got a
cheap cable modem from Comcast, wired up a WiFi router, and
let them play.
You don't really need a separate uplink - just connect the visiting
hardware upstream of the firewall.
