You're asking to be cucked. Useless meme. Use common sense.
>>60812391
common sense doesn't work like that anon. do you know why a firewall exists?
>>60812432
So the shit that you click on like an idiot before checking it would not connect to the internet without your permission. Common sense would tell you not to click on shit that might connect to the internet without your permission.
>>60812458
what if they're the ones connecting to you rather than you connecting to them
>>60812472
How? All my router's ports are stealthy. You can try, but any attempt will fail.
>>60812486
another computer on the lan infected??
if you keep acting this confident and care not for security it will bite you in the ass later
>>60812508
>another computer on the lan infected??
No.
>>60812537
no what?
why are you so confident in your security
>>60812566
>no what?
No infected PC on the LAN.
>why are you so confident in your security
Been like this for years.
>>60812391
Fuck off you fucking retard.

Hello, cuck (:
I know you're all going to call me stupid but holy fuck, Windows firewall makes no fucking sense to me and when I make changes it seems to do fucking nothing.
>>60812228
ufw
iptables, I've never used nftables nor I've heard much. What is it? Should I start using it?
>>60812690
Do you understand what stealthed ports are?
>>60812822
Femanon couldn't understand his way out of a paper bag.
None because I don't like bloat
>>60812228
Sonicwall and GMS
>>60812228
Komodo is the SHIT. Hella free Firewall.
>>60812822
Yes.
>>60812228
I use shorewall, but my network is bullshit complicated and I cant figure out the rules I need to make what I want to happen to actually happen.
This involves several subnetworks and like 4 interfaces on the actual machine, vpns, and all kinds of bullshit I dont even know the name of so I dont actually expect any help.
Sofar for basic bitch stuff, I really like shorewall alot. It just takes alot of time and patience or autism to sit down and learn.

Not him, but Ive been av and firewall free for years(except routers fw).
Its just too damn risky anymore. There was a period between 2005 and now that knowing what you were doing is acceptable, but if you value your shit then you should just go the secure route.
Example, you go to a friends/parents house who you have the wifi password for. Your phone connects, they have a worm in their network, you go home, bring the worm into your network. Its now on the inside of your firewall.
inb4 phones dont get viruses

This. There is no safe space for computers. You must act as if you are always in a DMZ.
>>60812458
dude you are basically dumb as fuck. i guess it's cool if you want to run your home shit like that, but there is definitely value to being able to control which computers access which protocols or ports on a network. locking down things like this eliminates yet one more vector of attack.
>>60814090
>i guess it's cool
At best. Not benefical in any way thouugh. You won't be "more secure" by cucking yourself with a memewall.
>>60812228
nftables
