    hi,
    im using the eircom netopia router
    the router itself is responding to pings from pcs outside the lan
    id rather it dropped the packets when pinged externally.
    is there any way to set it up to do this or will i have to open all the ports and let a software firewall do this?

    My one here (Netopia Cayman 3000) doesn't, altough it does have an option to pay for software updates to add firewall etc :(
    Plug it's internal ip address into your browser and you should get a configuration page up
