If this Router is hosting your network’s connection to the Internet, please select the check box. If another Router exists in your network, you don’t need to select the option.

¾Enable SPI Firewall: A SPI firewall enhances network’s security. Select the option to use a firewall, or else without a firewall.

¾Enable IGMP Multicast: This is disabled by default. This setting will not allow IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) packets to be forwarded to the LAN. IGMP is used to manage multicasting on TCP/IP networks. Most users will not need to enable this. Some ISPs use IGMP to perform remote configuration for client devices, such as the Router. If you are unsure, check with your ISP.
