Question:

if you have an External Router (m10, m11, m1122), doesnt the router act as a phyisical firewall anyway? and therefore not requiring additional software like ZoneLabs or whatever ?

Can someone clear this up?

Thanks

Brendan

      Hi all

      Has anyone read the article in todays Herald regarding the new mw122 units.

      How much damage can be done on a home connection with no pinholes enabled?
       
      , and will napster function as a server without a pinhole?

      thanks in advance

      Keri Ring.
