View 2 RepliesI want to use my router as a firewall. I don't know if this matters, but I have a D-Link Model: DI-624M.
I would like to be asked on all outgoing and incoming internet actions.
I attached the page of the instruction manual if that helps, it sure didn't help me.
I have a Linksys WRT160N v2 and i play a lot of games, and enjoy hosting games.however there are too many ports to forward. I was wondering that if i turned off my routers firewall would this eliminate me having to port forward? and if i could do that how would i. I know how to access my router so you can give instructions form that point of if you would like

View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes a built in firewall on a router really keep your computer safe? Does that mean keeps safe from email virus, or websites? Or is it only keep you safe from direct attacks? I starting see I have a lack of understanding of how things work? back in the days there was one way to get a virus lol seems things have gotton much more complicated I mean seems like you neeed twelve programs HIPS , Firewalls, Malware, anti virus, anti root kit.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy connection keeps going out randomly and my computer is just having general bad connectivity. I know it is my computer because no other computers in the household are having this problem. I'm not really good with internet issues, but I've reset my router, restarted my computer, turned off firewall and antivirus. Those didn't work, and I did try using a ethernet cable but it didn't work any better.

I've recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 Beta Build 7000 and I have Comodo Firewall 3.8.65951.477 64-Bit installed as my firewall. I get this problem that I can't solve at all .
When I click on " Run Diagnostics" I have this :
Indeed, I click "Yes" and this is what comes next :
PS : The Windows 7 Firewall is desactivated!
Anybody haves an idea on this problem, please ?
Recently had a virus infection and noticed that the windows firewall service is missing. When trying to reset to recommended settings by using control panel received error code 0x80070424. Cannot access other computers or shared files/folders on home network. Saw a previous post dated 12-17 that appears to be the same problem.

View 1 Replies View Relatedafter I installed RC 7100 the firewall used to ask me if I'd like to allow a outbound connection for every program that would try to connect.
Unfortunately it doesn't do that anymore. In the Windows Firewall Properties I can only chose Allow or Block Outbound for the different profiles. If I set it to block, it will silently block all outbound connection attempts.
I want to have it blocked by default, but I don't want to have to create rules manually for each program, I'd like the original behavior, that is, have it ask me on connection attempt. Where can I set that?
I'm having some problems with windows' firewall. Last night I tried to set up a simple ftp server (to share a couple of folders, and access that folder through other computers connected to the network by typing the IP address into a browser/ftp client on the other computer). My problem simply is, that I cannot connect to the ftp. It works fine when I try to access it from my computer (which is the server).
But I can't connect to it through other computers, unless I turn off Windows Firewall. I tried playing around with the Inbound/Outbound rules (disabled/enabled everything), nothing worked. I also have FTP allowed in "Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall", and I still haven't managed to get it to work. Can anyone suggest any solutions?
I've got an issue that's been driving me crazy. I've installed MobaSSH and the windows firewall absolutely refuses to let it through. I've taken down the firewall and everything works fine, so I know its the firewall. Same problem with a Serv-u FTP server but I'm not as worried about that as I am the SSH server. MobaSSH adds itself as a service, so while it was running I found the process and made sure that it was added to the firewall, I can find nothing else to add to exceptions. I haven't found much in terms of firewalls for Windows 7, so I would prefer to get this to work instead of switching firewalls

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a home server that runs utorrent and sabnzbd. I access them both via their web interfaces from my main computer. Now, up until recently the server has run on XP since it only has 512MB of ram, but after reading that seven will run on that I installed 7077. My main computer already runs on 7068. Problem is now I have real problems connecting via the web interfaces.
I can connect most of the time with the IP address in the address (ie http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8080/sabnzbd/), but when using the network name (http://server:8080/sabnzbd/) it takes several minutes just to refresh. This would be okay, but other programs that tie in with sabnzbd fail on both IP and network names.
Now, when I disable the 'private' side of windows firewall on the server the problem vanishes. But despite my best efforts I can't make a rule that let's it work while the firewall is up.
Currently I'm using Comodo Internet Security as a firewall and I'm planning to build a home network using Windows 7 Homegroup and thought that Comodo might be an obstacle in doing that.
So my question is, as a normal home user of Windows 7, do I really need a 3rd party firewall other than Windows 7's firewall?
Right now I'm trying the combo Windows Firewall + MSE. Everything is working fine except one thing. If I activate the outbound protection in the firewall the homegroups feature stops working properly. I can't see my other computer (same configuration on both).
You don't have to be a genius to see that there's some missing outbound rule and that's why the win firewall is blocking this feature.
The question is: Does anyone knows how to configure the Windows Firewall for this feature to work properly ?
Are there any good free firewall programs? I don't want to just go googling such a query as I'll most likely get trojan horse malware.
View 6 Replies View RelatedJust wondering what you are using for antivirus and firewall with windows 7.
Currently I am using Avast Home ant-virus, and Win 7 FW. I may give Comodo a try.
What do you think?
