4.9 Firewall

The wireless router can serve as a hardware firewall for your
network.

NOTE

: The Firewall feature is enabled by default.

4.9.1 General

1. From the navigation panel, go to

Advanced Settings

>

Firewall

>

General

tab.

2. On the

Enable Firewall

field, select

Yes.

3. On the

Enable DoS

protection

, select

Yes

to protect your

network from DoS (Denial of Service) attacks though this may

affect your router’s performance.

4. You can also monitor packets exchanged between the LAN

and WAN connection. On the Logged packets type, select

Dropped

,

Accepted

, or

Both

.

5. Click

Apply

.

4.9.2 URL Filter

You can specify keywords or web addresses to prevent access to
specific URLs.

NOTE

: The URL Filter is based on a DNS query. If a network client has

already accessed a website such as http://www.abcxxx.com, then

the website will not be blocked (a DNS cache in the system stores

previously visited websites). To resolve this issue, clear the DNS cache

before setting up the URL Filter.
