Is it possible to use an external firewall (pfsense, or any other router) instead of the built in one?

    Alexander,
    Are you inquiring regarding an external router with it's built-in firewall, or a firewall program? Let's talk, I think this is a good question and it deserves our attention.
    Respectfully,
    George
