Has anyone supplemented their Orbi setup with an actual firewall/utm in front of it?

I'm curious has anyone who is using their orbi right from their incoming connection (with no ISP provider router) to power their home internet setup supplemented that setup with an actual firewall/utm device in front of it? 

 

Or do you feel like the orbi is capable of handing everything you need from a port, traffic inspection point of view?

Orbi has a built-in firewall that will give you basic protection against e.g. DoS, port scan, and other threats.

You can also add the optional Netgear Armor to Orbi which will give you additional advanced cyberthreat protection.
