4.4 Firewall

4.4.1 General

The wireless router can serve as a hardware firewall for your
network. Set up the firewall to protect your network from
malicious attacks such as Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. DoS
attacks disable a device or network to deny users access to
network resources.
To set up basic Firewall settings:
1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings >
Firewall > General tab.
2. On the Enable Firewall field, select Enable.
3. On the Respond Ping Request from WAN field, select Yes to
block hackers from pinging devices in your network from the
Internet.
4. Click Apply.
