Do I really need firewall? A newbie's question
Dear Experts,
I have a newbie question about firewall, and hope you can explain to me. Thanks beforehand.
My home network has three computers, and uses ADSL for Internet connection. I just use a normal ADSL modem/router, and use 192.168.x.x addresses in LAN. These addresses are non-routable, which means that other people cannot access my computers from outside using these IP addresses. So, why should I enable firewall in my modem/router settings?
Any reply is appreciated. Thanks!
Lei
