Firewall Technology
Your wireless gateway also provides fully-integrated firewall

firewall security combines Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI)
and dynamic packet filtering to provide a robust and
flexible defense system for your home network. The
firewall looks for known data patterns used by hackers,
and prevents them from harming your network. Updates
are available online to detect and block out new hacker
patterns.
Your firewall will:
■
Protect the personal, financial, and work-related
information on your network.
■
Keep hackers from using your identity to send
unauthorized messages.

Keep out unwanted downloads.
