Due to bezeq's modem's wifi unreliability, I'm mostly connecting to my own wifi router anyway. I'd have switched to it completely and use a firewall there, except it's old and doesn't support IPv6 at all, and I haven't gotten around to buy a new one and/or install *WRT.
I'm also a general believer in securing my laptops rather than my network, as I'm connecting to any and all wifis when traveling, and I've been deliberately running an unsecured wifi for years, valuing helping neighbors & passers-by over security (nowdays there is no dillema I'm shifting to separate guest networks). To some degree, the desire of dropping NAT and having world-addressable machines inherently conflicts with the desire to have a firewall. But the wisdom of all this is of course debatable. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
