Hello and thank you in advance for your assistance.
I have recently had an issue with an uninvited person remote into my laptop, access online accounts and gain access to my phone.
In response to this I took my laptop back to factory settings, bought a new phone and switched carriers. I have also bought a new century link modem and a pepwave surf soho router. I fully admit that I am not terribly tech savvy, but am trying to increase my knowledge real fast.
I have WiFi disabled on my centurylink zyxel pk5001z modem. I ran 1 Ethernet cable from it to my pep wave surf soho mk3 router. I will be getting a vpn service installed on my laptop, ipad and phone. Hope this is a good plan
As I stated, I am no IT person and not as knowledgeable as I need to be. I am looking for help in setting up my firewall and other settings to prevent further intrusion. The problem is that I don’t know enough to do this myself. If anyone could help me with setting the firewall rules and other settings, I would greatly appreciate it.
TIA
MIKE
