Title: RE: [FW1] Cable/DSL Router/Firewalls True...the linksys does NAT, and provides a decent
level of protection as it is
I use
a linksys at home (with SR over an AT&T @home cable connection) ...
and since installing it, my ZoneAlarm is sleeping soundly... nothing ever shows
up anymore... the random port scans..etc... just seem to dissappear
at the linksys.
However... if one of your computers is configured as a
'DMZ host' then you are leaving it open again.... so... being that a home
user may do that on their own.... zonealarm seems like a good free
backup...
Doesn't the Linksys router have FW protection?
If so, why would you use BlackICE or ZoneAlarm too?
