Precautions when you dont trust the router..

I am talking for the rest of the time when i dont use the pc for work, like simply for personal use- watching movies, doing fun and stuff in home environment. I know it wont be 100% protection, just the basics. Or in other words- apart from disabling sharing and turn off network discovery, is there other steps to lower the chances of any infection.

And since we are on the subject, and pardon me if i am getting annoying here, but if i run TAILS on my machine and if it's compromised (the laptop) is there anypossibility that it can affect the TAILS system. Do they have any touch connections at all (my OS and the TAILS). So can i work with my photos safely on the TAILS. also can i use programs like photoshop when i am using TAILS.

Tails will absolutely not be compromised. It's an OS that runs from USB/DVD and no way comes in contact with Windows unless you want to save files from a Windows drive.

Daffydd hi there So i should not worry about if my OS was compromised. But what if it's the router that is hacked, is there tiny chancee that my work ot TAILS could get compromised even if the odds are super low. And if there is that basically 0 chanceethat UEFI had maliscious code installed, but i am the unluckiest person on Earth and i have it, will it affect this booting from TAILS? And again can i use programs like photoshop while booting on Tails, i cant get this because will it have its own memory?
Again guys i know how low the chances are, but i want to know evey known possible exploit.
Thanks!

1. I don't think you've been compromised.
2. Go into your router and change passwords if they were left as when the router came. Example? Standard router passwords= "Admin or password".
3. No Mod or member will give a 0% chance on this. there is a slight chance Tails could be affected, as some Linux software is vulnerable to malware which will pass to a Windows machine if connected.
4. Photoshop will likely not run on Tails but there are alternatives. Tails won't have a memory unless you create a "persistent USB" How is on the web.
Best of luck,
Dafydd.

Thanks Dave, I believe those answers are enough. I will learn how to use Tails, possible with presisten USB, i will ask here in the future if find any problems. i've changed the router admin password long ago I opened one last thread, if you have time check on it as well. Again thanks and best of luck to you too!
