[QUOTE="bribon77, post: 827975, member: 63961"] A hardware firewall should be used when we want to protect our entire network through a single device. In this way all the computers we connect will be protected from possible threats. This is best suited for large companies, for example. In a single place they could control all the connections that enter. It should also be borne in mind that our devices would only be safe while we are in that network where we have installed the hardware firewall. When we leave that network no longer. On the other hand, a software firewall is recommended for home users. In addition, your router has a firewall in addition to the one you use on your PC. If you are a domestic user does not deserve to have a hardware Firewall. (It's just my opinion) :giggle: [/QUOTE]
