What is BRCM-LVG under shared? Is my computer being hacked?

This shared BRCM-LVG showed up on my Mac when we got a new ISP "Time Warner Cable" and they installed a Tricolor TC8715D router/modem. It concerned me so thought I would try a quick Google search and found this forum. Not being one of these "everyone's out to get me" conspiracy nuts I thought I would do some research so here's what I've found. zhen424 seems to be right on the money. I went through the setting and found my DLNA and Digital Media Server and USB Settings were all on by default. Turned them all off. Reset router. A quick IP scan later and the mysterious BRCM-LVG device is gone.

Here's how I understand this works. If you wish to... you could connect a Hard Drive via USB to your shiny new router and use it as a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. But, in order to access this, now wirelessly connected, mass storage device there needs to be a intermediary device that handles the connection, searches said HD for files and transfers to PC, takes incoming files from PC and writes them to the HHD, etc. Built into the TC8715D there exists such a device and it's main chipset is made by Broadcom which explain the name. Now... if you're still worried about it, just turn off the features i mentioned above, reset the router and eject the BRCM-LVG device from your Macs. Enjoy!
