[QUOTE="UweTheSailor, post: 1832601, member: 368485"] Thanks again for your input! In regards to - yes I know, that is great you mention that and the script above does include switching this option "on". and in regards to - well, they might have or have not, however, if I use a WiFi in a cafe I might have no influence whether the firewall in the rooter is switched on or not... that means I have no control over that. Though what I have e control over is my internal SW firewall on my machine, at least that was what I was thinking... Never the less, we are missing the point here. MY QUESTION was, and still is: HOW CAN I MAKE SURE my firewall is switched on and not suddenly off after I update my machine (or whatever caused my laptop to switch off the FW without my consent in the first place)? I want to learn about solutions that switch the FW in my machine on and make sure that it is always on - the script is a solution I came up with but there are much better solutions which I don't know of. Can YOU advise me what to do in order to assure my FW is running and how to do so? Thanks, Uwe [/QUOTE]
