So I have to look at a free firewall so my pc is safe in DMZ, so recommendations, as last software firewall I had was Blackice and dabbled with Comodo Firewall which then wasn't reliable.

Quote from: Gus plusnet supplied TG582n port forwarding doesn't work.
From my experience the port forwarding has a hissy fit if uPnP is enabled. I've been on remote assistance with a customer previously trying to get them working as we'd add one port, but then it wouldn't allow us to add any more ports and it'd say that it's already assigned to a device, even though it wasn't.
So I ended up trying it with uPnP disabled, and this allowed me to open multiple ports which then worked...
Hope this might help you if you can't find a "decent" free firewall.
Regards,
Matt

Quote from: Gus uPnP is never an option for me, I don't trust that feature on any router. So I disabled it once I find it is on a router I am using.
Which game were you facing issues with?
I never used uPNP - horrible feature imo.
