How to improve security using the built-in firewall

By default, the firewall settings in your router work well in most home environments. You don't need
to make changes. The SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall is enabled by default, and anonymous
Internet requests and IDENT requests are filtered by default. All web filters are disabled, because
enabling them may cause problems for sites that depend on ActiveX controls, Java, or cookies.
If you decide to change your firewall settings, log in to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See ''How to connect to
Linksys Smart Wi-Fi'' on page 10.) Under Router Settings, click Security. The Security page will open
to the Firewall tab.
