Hi There, Well the first thing is that if you have a way to access the network by getting around the firewall so does someone else. Dial in is not going to be very secure. Well if you have 3 computers, unless you have a hub, switch, etc to connect the 3 machines you will not get all of them on the net. The firewall from Linksys is good from what I have heard, the firewall group has a good things to say about Sonicwall. That would allow you to not have the hub also. I believe that the sonicwall is going to be more secure then Linksys. Back to the PC Anywhere, you would not use a switch (Firewall) with that kind of device That is mainly for a network connection. Again if you can bypass the security with a modem, so can anyone also. NOT a wise idea. Why do you want to bypass it anyway??? Also one thing I would highly recommand is that you join the firewall list at [To subscribe, send mail to majordomo@lists.gnac.net with "subscribe firewalls" in the body of the message.] Follow the instructions on the list when you get the message back. Also it can be a fairly active list. So you will get a moderate amount of mail. Does that help some?? If not ask more questions.
