I am planning on purchasing a firewall/router for my wired home network and I came across the Linksys BEFSX41 Firewall/Router. I currently have a Windows 2000 Server and 4 XP Pro machines on a network. The internet connection is shared thru my server and I have a software firewall on the server.

If I purchase the Linksys BEFSX41 Firewall/Router will I need software firewalls on each individual desktop or is the Linksys BEFSX41 secure enough?

Thanks

It should be fine for incoming threats, but it will not help you from outgoing threats.
