Review: Improved Network Security - I bought this to replace our Netgate. I don't think I can ever have a non-NGFW again. It functioned great out of the box, has a very easy management console, I love the console port that I can use to connect to it if I screw up some configuration and get locked out of the GUI, the subscription to give me updated rules is amazing value compared to trying to configure everything from scratch on my Netgate running OpenSense, and I feel it has really made my network when working remotely from home far more secure for my work.
Review: Must have item! - Very happy with the security!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does fortinet fortigate fg-40f replace my router?  can i use expressvpn for vpn?**
A: We use the Fortigate-40F for the gateways on various satellite installations.  Using the NAT capabilities, we route traffic at the IP and IP-Port level to dedicated public-facing services.  We use the site-to-site VPN capabilities to link all these installations into a coherent network space, and individual users are able to connect as well.  My only complaint is poor Linux support for road-warriors.  Macbook users have found the FortiClient software to be adequate.  I can't speak to Windows.  As to ExpressVPN, you will need to check their compatibility list -- the Fortigate follows the published standards; however, every VPN setup that I have ever worked with required a lot of tweaking, some of which was effectively impossible to resolve.

**Q: Does it have layer 7 protection?**
A: Yes

**Q: Is this a good firewall for Home use? What services does Liceancing enable for the hardware to work in a home?**
A: My IT tech recommended this product for my home.

**Q: It came with the year of utm?**
A: This bundle - FG-40F-BDL-950-12 - includes the 40F + 1 year of UTM licensing

Very happy with the security!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great for the price
*by B***N on October 7, 2024*

does all the bsic firewall/networking stuff I need at a reasonable price. I tried so many other expensive routers but they all fell short of vlan requirements. this firewall does vlan layer 3 well. it takes a while to get used to the interface and how it manages objects, so be sure you have time to spare for learning before you deploy to prod. logging all has to go to syslog so be sure you can install splunk and/or cacti to get the long term data you need. the appliance has some logging and widget/graphs but does not provide a long enough time range.
