Hi new to the forums

when i was searching info about routers, i found this :

netalk.com/forum/networking.php/&f4oldpost

anybody hear of the rumor that 2wire home portal dsl modem/ routers contain malware in the actual router itself which attaches itself to packets and secretly sends logs of all the networked pcs internet activity to each pc. where it then resides on your computer. And why would they do this? Dont' want to spread bad rumors about 2wire, ( i have a 2wire home portal and it has been great) maybe someone is just being stupid

Are any routers capable of downloading sofware to your computer anyway? yet alone being able to process information contained in packets.
