I use a hardware router to connect my network to my broadband connection.

The router has a built in firewall with 4 settings including OFF. Unfortunately with any of the other 3 settings I cannot access my webserver from the internet.

My question is if I have NAT enabled making my clients invisible from the WAN side do I need a Firewall at all?

The router allows bridging where I can specify an I.P. address and port number for the web server on my network for incoming WAN -> LAN traffic - this is enabled, will this cover me ?

Regards

Tinky
