In MY (not so) humble opinion, you're way more secure using the firewall that you DMZ'd than the one supplied by Micro§loth
ok thats an intersting point of view.
so if I turn off DMZ and forward all the ports that makes it more secure? Sorry but no
If the ports are forwarded then the NAT is not blocking them and therefore it is in no way more secure than letting all ports come to me and using a firewall to block them.
