You trust the one-size-fits-all firewall that your ISP has provided?
Not really :-)
Why not run your own, e.g. the openSUSE firewall?
I do, it is on, but it only protects the computer. There are devices connected to the router without their own firewall: the printer, the digital TV recorder... Yes, I know I can get a computer with linux, two ethernet ports, and a switch, to really protect the local network. But that is more expense and a good deal of hassle. And more electricity.
I would need a box capable of tunneling over IPv4, and I wouldn't have the foggiest idea what to buy.
Your own Linux box is all you need.
Yes, for services from the computer. If I'd want (which I don't) to put a lone VoIp phone over IPv6, I would need something else. That is, if I want to get some of the advantages of IPv6, I would need something else. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
