Re: [PLUG] Using iptables instead of my wireless router firewall


I'm not sure about that.  You might want to not use the WAN port and use a crossover cable from a port on the switch instead.

Here are some assumptions and quandaries.  The firewall should be
connected to the WAN port of the wireless, right.  There shouldn't be much
difference between using the firewall instead of the DSL modem, or is
there?  My thoughts are functionally they should be very similar.
