What are the different options that I have for router security?

1. Basic router security acting as a traffic cop is provided by Network Address Translation (NAT) which masks your computers address and manages the flow of information to and from the PCs that are connected to it and prevents hackers from identifying your PC while you’re surfing the web. 2. Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) Firewall inspects packets to ensure they are a legitimate part of your communication. SPI feature is now built into most routers and provides a higher level of security than NAT.
