Ok so I want to make sure that I'm being safe with my router using SSH.
I have my router setup to use SSH only on LAN but I want to make sure that no one else can connect to my router from the outside internet using SSH.
Allow password login is checked yes but authorized Keys is empty does that mean somebody could log in without any key or is it safer to leave authorized key empty so no one can login from the internet?

This will make me feel a lot safer if I know no one can access this router from the outside any help appreciated.
