Sure, still there is firewall, when you set to PPP you disable the firewall and transfer the firewall to the router that you have.
Please remember, the firewall is generic word, the firewall means block the ports, and there is reason for port forwarding which really means open a brick of firewall to specific private IP address..
I understand the confusion, but still almost all NAT based system has firewall.
The only DSL modem that I don't see firewall is Cisco 677 modem.
And nope, I didn't look wrong model, just that sometimes ISP mocked up the interface of a modem and that is common. Verizon have their own frirmware which makes the interface look different, just that they used different words just to confuse people like you. I was like yawning.

You pick wrong model. It is not Speedstream 5100.
This is Speedstream 5100 look like.
BTW It's Speedstream 5100B which not have firewall setting. So I had to set it up for bridge mode thru PPP location to other router to make it work. |
