My wireless router has a firewall, my A/V has a firewall, my XP OS has a
firewall. LinkSys say theirs is the best, Panda Titanium bugs the heck out
of me if theirs isn't turned on, people say that XP's version is worthless.
Can all these firewalls conflict and cause problems or is it like looking
through three panes of glass? Should I leave all three enabled? Or,
un-enable the Panda and XP? I'm not sure if I can stop the LinkSys firewall
easily.
Yes they can conflict. When I have two firewalls turned on it cuts
my throughput in half. One should be enough. IF it's configured
properly.
