Hello,
I have activated Firewall in my W500g router (for security reasons also WPA-PSK, hide SSID and MAC Filter).
Now, trying the free media control center "Orb 2.0" I was surprised to get from my Wii-console (wifi) full access to my PC folders (after log-in on Orb2.0 page)!! OK, this tool is for streaming media, but still was surprising..
I was surprised not to do any port forwarding or something...
Even my activated WinXP firewall did not react.
Might it be that my firewall is not propper functioning?
Can anyone suggest a page/ program to check security level of my router/computer?
Thanks for your information/ suggestion/ help
Cheers from cold Hamburg!
