[SunRescue] router security

Hi All.

With all this discussion of cable routers, etc. I was wondering... I
have a Netgear ISDN router that has a NAT server built into it, and
I have a few ports going to various machines on my network. It has an
option to set one IP as the default (anything specifically not
redirected would go to the default) which I don't have set, so in theory
anything trying to get in via a port not listed in my NAT config won't
get past the router. How secure is this setup?
