http://twitter.com/chrispirillo - Recently, someone over on Lockergnome asked if a router can be used as a hardware-based firewall. The short answer to this is - YES! Your best bet is to always use layers of security, though. A hardware-based firewall - such as a router - should be used in conjunction with a software firewall solution and an anti-virus program.
