Can someone PLEASE tell me how to activate the Firewall in the ORBI?

Hi, I was told by Arris that enabling firewall is done on the ORBI and not the modem. I'm running Mojave on a iMac Pro. I know I can turn on the Firewall in the Mac's System Pref's, but it's causing issue's with certain applications I'm currently running.

 

How do I activate Firewall in the ORBI? Anyone know?

 

Thanks!

      Hi Furry,

       

      Where do I locate that when I go to 192.168.1.1?

       

      Thanks!

        Furry, is the firewall built into the ORBI or do I have to check a box when I go to 192.168.1.1?

         

        Thanks!
