Can firewall settings affect cardsharing server response times

    I wondered out of curiosity could the following firewall DOS Defence settings affect the response times from cardsharing servers and thus produce occasional glitches/freezes and if so which ones should I disable (they are all currently enabled to be blocked) ?


    DoS defense Setup



    Enable DoS Defense
    Enable SYN flood defense Threshold packets / sec
    Timeout sec
    Enable UDP flood defense Threshold packets / sec
    Timeout sec
    Enable ICMP flood defense Threshold packets / sec
    Timeout sec
    Enable Port Scan detection Threshold packets / sec
    Block IP options Block TCP flag scan
    Block Land Block Tear Drop
    Block Smurf Block Ping of Death
    Block trace route Block ICMP fragment
    Block SYN fragment Block Unassigned Numbers
    Block Fraggle Attack

    I think you will find the occasional freeze and glitch has to do with the card / server you are using if its a 0963 card unblock them all for a while you will still get the same result if its your own setup you need to sort out your services to help reduce this
