Solved GFWL Strict NAT

The router firewalls ain't hardware based? And Windows Firewall should be sufficient right? (Sorry if I act like a noobie even though I ain't, I just like to make sure lol)

any Netgear is good, Belkin is fine but due to this I assume you've been put off a bit? I'm not too familiar with models as I haven't changed my router in 5 years.
