Home Net Firewall

Archived from groups: comp.security.firewalls (More info?)

Originally I only had one PC on my DSL connection, and I've been using
Zone Alarm Pro for some time on it. Now I've got a second PC connected
that I use to access my employer's network through a VPN connection. I
could install another copy of ZAP on it, but I'm wondering if there
isn't a better solution than running a software firewall on every PC I
hook up. My SMC Barricade router is getting a little long in the
tooth, also. Any suggestions?

Maybe nothing. I really don't have a clue about how good it's firewall
is, but it's old enough that I figure a newer router, or a separate
firewall box, would be more effective.
