I thought I would try out the Chromecast and immediately ran into a problem connecting to the Actiontec V1000h router (firmware version 31.121L.13).
A quick Google search led to the solution - change the router firewall settings from NAT Only to High. Problem solved - Chromecast works.
The question is: in changing from Telus's default NAT Only setting to High, am I reducing my firewall security significantly? Another Google search couldn't provide any specifics on the various firewall security level settings.
Any thoughts?
