samtec55,

Wow, I thought I subscribed to this thread, I guess not!

Anyway, to answer your question, I am not 100% sure what was 'wrong' with my setup. I now have 150/10-ish connection, which I know the Shield will not route at full linespeed. Not a problem, but just a consideration.

I haven't booted it up in a long time, probably a few months after delivery at least. When I did try, I could get to the web interface, but never out to the Internet, which was frustrating as I'd have to disconnect the Shield from the network to attempt to troubleshoot, and then plug it all back in to see if a solution or whatever worked.

Now that ITUS has gone under, I know I am at least a few version of the FW behind, and have no idea where to turn, should I decide to try using the Shield as intended (in-line IDS/IPS at home) at some point.

My network isn't too complicated at the moment, and I don't intend it to be, but there are some things that probably need extra careful attention to protecting; like an Internet-accessible NAS or something along those lines.
