Does this router have a firewall? I want to process credit cards when customers pay for my services. The merchant service wants to know if my router has a firewall.

Define "firewall". It doesn't have a feature named "firewall", but
it has some firewall-like features.
> [...] The merchant service wants to know if my router has a firewall.
I'd say yes. If their idea of security is to ask you rather than to
run some actual test, then I'd guess that practically anything would
qualify.

Re: R7000P AC2300 firewall
Thank you Antinode. I also spoke with a merchant representative who said if my Outlook is sometimes warning me about a risky email, then that's the firewall doing it's job.

Outlook, or e-mail in general, would have nothing to do with your
router's security capabilities. If I were depending on that "merchant
service" for any security expertise, then I might be looking around for
an alternative. Or, perhaps, someone who works there and knows
something.
