By Andrew Liszewski The effectiveness of the CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing Test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart ) security system is still being debated. It’s far from bulletproof, but at the least it provides one more stumbling block to someone or something trying to compromise a website’s security. So D-Link has now added an integrated CAPTCHA system to some of its more popular routers including the DIR-615, DIR-625, DIR-628, DIR-655, DIR-825, DIR-855, DIR-685, and DGL-4500. The company

is hoping the added level of security will reduce the number of incidents where routers have been used to compromise a home or small office network. And if you’re currently using any of the aforementioned D-Link routers you’ll actually be able to download and install a firmware update from support.dlink.com that adds the CAPTCHA security functionality .
