Most routers provide you with additional protections to block incoming connections or control outgoing protections. At the same time, you should have a firewall installed on your PC to make sure that people are not able to tunnel into your computer. The point is, try to have several layers of protection. Your router can count as one, and your PC firewall can count as the second. This will help you to ensure that your information is kept private.
