Home network without security appliances protection such as firewall, IPS, anti-virus software etc will be the easiest to hack in.
However if the router come with security feature set, then at least turn on the following features - may make it harder for hackers as the first line of defense :-
(1) NAT
(2) IPS
(3) Multiple layer passwords
(4) ACL - standard and extended
But the home network is still the weak link.

Wonder how come IP-based electrical appliances allow downloadable files?
Need to put host IDS in IP-based electrical appliances from now on?
1. NAT can hide internal network IP addresses.
2. IPS can configure to detect intrusion and attack.
3. Multiple layer passwords - hackers will need to crack the various layer passwords before can get through the network.

4. Host IDS - can detect malware or virus residing in the servers or appliances.
5. ACL – Access control list – will be similar to packet filtering rules like firewall – to allow access only from a specific source and deny access from other network in the Internet. Also can set extended ACL to deny smtp traffic flowing in and out and thus prevent malware loaded in electrical appliances to send email. - how is it?
