Firewall

Select the Firewall tab from the Advanced Settings tabs. The following
screen will appear:

Fig.3.14 Firewall

Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from
a wide array of common hacker attacks including Ping of Death (PoD)
and Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. You can turn the firewall function off
if it is interfering with an application’s function. Turning off the firewall
protection will not leave your network completely vulnerable to hacker
attacks, but it is recommended that you turn on the firewall whenever
possible.

You can enable/disable the Firewall in the Firewall Enable/Disable field.

After you have made your choice in this screen, you can set it up by clicking
on the Submit button.
