I have just bought this router and i want to know if its any good

I want to know if the router i have bought is any good.


The make is ALLNET

and the version is ALL130DSLA

how do i know if this router has a hardware firewall built in or all the routers have a hardware firewall built in?


is this router any good

 

first you buy and then you look if it's good well it can surely work out...been there done that

I don't know...if it had NAT (network address translation) then you're stealthed but if that is the answer you're looking for, I don't know.

Sincerely

 

chaos16,

Personally, I've not heard of the make, although it could be a rebranded unit for all I know. A quick search seems to imply it's fairly localized in the German market at the present.

Typically, these are the questions one would ask before buying a unit.

i nkow but my dad bought it so there is nothing i can do.


i have tried looking for reviews but i can't its on another lkanguage.

does anyone know if it has a hardware firewall and if its a good router with a good hardware firewall??

 

I don't know the brand...but I bet my money it has NAT .. that's a nice security feature anyway (go into your configuration setup: mostly you type in some IP address in your address) then you'll find the config panel.

in your control panel you'll be able to find what capacities it has.
don't you have a manual?

 

Translated using babelfish from the manufacturers German website:

LAN INTERFACE LAN standard nearly Ethernet of LAN haven 4xRJ45 of integrated SWITCHES WAN INTERFACE DSL technology DSL DSL modem integrates INTERNET ENTRANCE SUA 1 NAT & PAT MINUTES WAN of minutes PPPoE; PPPoA of CHARACTERISTICS Web-based LED displays SECURITY & FIREWALL FUNCTIONS Filtering URL Filtering DHCP support server Firewall GENERAL DATA test character CE _ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ADSL modem (annex A) not been suitable for the enterprise in Germany Erweitete log functions hacker attack recognition Mailalarm with hacker attacks DMZ host support DynDNS

Hope this helps...

Cheers

 

sry blackspear i don't completly understand wat u are saying.

wat are u saying its a good router or bad??

are u saying it has a hardware firewall

 

Ronjor thnx any way but the routers that are on the link is not the version that i have.

 

I can only read as much as you can Chaos16

In what was translated there is mention of a Firewall, as to how good it is, I do not know.

Cheers

 

I`d say from Blackspear`s post it has a firewall and more. Seems to me to be a good router.

 

Oops, didn`t see you post.

 

you'll still need some outbound protection Chaos, no matter what hardware firewall you're running...

 

Agreed

Cheers

 

i use zonealarm so i think thats a good outbound protection.

 

Indeed it is

Cheers

 

Yep, us parents do that, much to the chagrin of the kids.

I took a peek at the English manual, available here. It's fine. Here's the brief feature set description from the manual:

Just make sure you have the latest firmware for it..they had a keep alive problem at one time..i think here you can even get the english manual,,firmware etc etc
