I just recently setup a seedbox but I'm having some problems installing a firewall.

When I first installed the firewall it required a system reset, and when it came back online, I could not remote in because it was blocking my connection.

Tech support was able to help me log back in, but I'm not sure how to re-install it without a smilar situation happening.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Why did you install a firewall?

As long as your box is up-to-date, it isn't really necessary to have one.

Control Panel > Network Connections > Your Connection > Properties > TCP/IP > Properties > Advanced > Options > TCP/IP Filtering > Properties

The only real firewall you'll need. Be sure to add TCP 3389 (Windows Remote Desktop Port).
