Archer D7 firewall implementation
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : Archer C7
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Good afternoon,
New TP-Link user here, so no previous experience of the hardware. Could not find Archer D7 listed under ADSL router section, so thought best to post here.
Can I please just check my understanding that the firewall does NOT need to be enabled to prevent/deny all INCOMING requests to the LAN. I refer to menu options for "Firewall" and "IPV6 Firewall" which are headings on left hand side of admin screen.
Also, I notice "SPI Firewall" under "WAN settings" (advanced). Should this be enabled to prevent incoming requests?
Are "Firewall" and "SPI Firewall" settings completely different things on this range of routers?
Thanks.
