Thanks for you reply, RMerlin, and thank you for your vast improvement of the standard asus firmware. It indeed works as you described, what baffles me is how a specific rule at the top of the input chain to drop packets heading to a specific port does not seem to do that. Is there something in...

I just did what i described above. /jffs/firewall-start and /jffs/nat-start that flushes all existing rules, replacing them with strict rulesets. However, nmap still reports 445/tcp open when scanned from LAN. This is true even -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 445 -j DROP is inserted at the top of the...

Thats obviously awesome if you have the hardware to spare. I'm thinking a custom iptables ruleset would be a "second best" solution, however the multitude of network interfaces and custom chains somewhat confuses me. You guys think something like this would work? 1...

Editing source to tighten security and forking my own firmware i think is beyond my capabilities, unfortunately. If you changed your setup to meet these concerns, do you mind sharing? I think these concerns are not tin-foil hat paranoia, its just sensible security oriented thinking.
