Questions from a newbie

My main pc is fitted with a NIC and hardwired to a Belkin Wireless Pre N Router, thence via an D-Link DSL-300T ADSL modem to the internet. I am informed that I do not need a software firewall with this set-up .... Is that correct ?

Apart from my IP address and password all the settings are Router settings are the default values. Is there anything I can tweak to improve performance or security ?

Regards & TIA
