i want to use it as an extra layer of protection to protect my home network (about 4 pc's, 1 mac, and 3 tablets) from "bad" things on the internet. i just wanted to load up a firewall distro, configure it ( i have configured a friends before, but never installed myself) and just let it run and protect me.

A. I suggest pfSense. You will need 2 ethernet ports. PCI ethernet cards are cheap.

I have activated a port for a office but have internet connection problems?
Q. Recently I have activate a port for a office room and i'm gettting internet connection but if i type something in search it gives me connect to office or offline. I'm currently running a linux firewall do i need to do some setting? or what should i do to fix it?

A. Make sure the port you specifies is not interfering with other services that is using the same port. You can also flush all the port to see which port is having problem. Also make sure your internet daemon is running.

You can always ping your router or any outside network to see if it has internet connection.

I hope this help.
