Security

The Security tab enables configuration of your router to provide enhanced net- work security using ZoneAlarm Pro and PC-cillin (sold separately). The Router provides a built-in Internet NAT firewall. ZoneAlarm Pro enhances the Router’s security capabilities for increased protection against hackers and other threats from the Internet. PC-cillin protects against viruses. ZoneAlarm Pro and PC-cillin work independently of each other. For more information on ZoneAlarm Pro, PC-cillin, and DSL or cable network security, please click the on-screen link to the Internet Security Center. This website will provide more information.
