[QUOTE="Daddy Elmis, post: 354054, member: 16533"] would you consider it unreasonably risky to not turn on the firewall when connected to the home LAN (wireless, WPA2 protected behind a Westell 6100 and an Airport Extreme)? When the firewall is on, I have a lot of trouble with Age of Empires and SyncTogether (even specifying ports, which I don't completely understand, but do what the manuals say). Everything works fine with the firewalls down. Hence my question of just how risky this is. [/QUOTE]
