You NEED to learn about FIREWALLS!

Your IoT devices are usually easy to hack, and they put the other devices on your network at risk. One way to help protect your more important devices is to keep them on a separate network, and create firewall rules that block your insecure devices from talking to any other network.

Your firewalls are a crucial part of your privacy and security setup. You can think of them like a bouncer at a building, deciding who is allowed to enter and who is not.

In this video we show you how to create a separate network for your insecure devices like IoT devices. We then show you how to create firewall rules to silo these devices on the separate network, so that they can't access any of your important devices on other networks.
