Title: firewall
Post by: Baz on November 21, 2007, 18:51

I have a netgear dg834pn router and wondered if anyone knows how to set the firewall to stop a program accessing the internet.

also if you have any tips on actually setting the firewall rules or is it ok to just leave it at the default settings.

thanks

Have a look here :

Netgear info (http://kbserver.netgear.com/pdf/dg834_reference_manual_2.pdf#xml=http://kbserver.netgear.com/inquira/default.asp?ui_mode=answer&prior_transaction_id=685180&action_code=6&highlight_info=352321585,1407,1851&turl=http%3A%2F%2Fkbserver.netgear.com%2Fpdf%2Fdg834_reference_manual_2.pdf&answer_id=30545575)

Configuring Basic Firewall Services in the menu on the left covers how to add services and block or allow them  :)

Go to the 6th floor of a building, and drop it out the window.  That should have it in bits, Michelle.   :)x
