Routers use addressess. The address for your router is



usually 192.168.0.1. It has an IP address usually 192.168.0.100. A subnet 255.255.255.0, Then it has Primary DNS and SecondaryDNS Numbers to connect to your Internet Service Provider. These shoud show up in your internet connections of your web browser.

All means all - Windows Firewall, Norton, anything else. Don't just disable Norton - remove it. (You should never run Norton anti-virus or Norton firewall anyway.) Windows firewall disables properly.



After you remove and disable, reboot.



And, if you have any other router between that one and the computer, it will appear as a firewall. You should only be running one router (or no router if your modem is doing routing).
