The wireless router can serve as a hardware rewall for your
network. Set up the rewall 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 eld, select Enable.
3. On the Respond Ping Request from WAN eld, select Yes to
block hackers from pinging devices in your network from the
Internet.
4. Click Apply.
