Being somewhat of a novice, I'd like to ask if the experts
here would advise me to activate XP's built in firewall to
run alongside the firewall built into the MN520.
I've had the router for several months now and have had
absolutely no problems using it. I have one machine
directly connected to it and a notebook and PocketPC that
access it wirelessly without any issues at all.
The router's firewall is active of course and currently I
have the windows xp (professional) software firewall
inactive.
I downloaded SP2 and installed it but I have yet to
actually use my PC after the installation (will do so
after I get back from work tonight). Should the Software
firewall be active as well? I understand SP2 has it
active by default.
Thanks!
