Well, I went and bought a refurbished D-Link DI-624 (rev C.) at Fry's yesterday for $40 + tax. I recommend it for anyone looking for a 802.11g wireless router for cheap.

But I have some questions about the kinds of firewall rules I should be setting. I have very little idea of how to set up a firewall. I usually use the firewall tester at GRC.com, and port 113 is the only port open when I turn on the default firewall rules in the router.

So, in short, I have two questions:
1) How to close port 113?
2) Am I okay leaving the default rules on? Or does anyone have settings they'd recommend?

Thanks in advance for the help.
