Overview
The meetinghouse firewall is like a bridge that will
connect all of the computers in the meetinghouse
to an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
You should install the firewall in the same general
location as the ISP modem. The location should be
secure, private, and convenient to an electrical
outlet.
As shown in the diagram on the following page,
the firewall must be positioned between the ISP
and all devices on the meetinghouse network.
