Nvidea Forceware Network Access Manager. Is it working?

[BergKatse]

I recently built my first rig (see below) and instead of using my old McAfee firewall I thought I'd take advantage of the hardware Nvidea firewall on the Expert mobo. Trouble is the firewall program will warn me if a program is trying to access the internet but the program doesn't seem to be monitoring internet traffic. If I look at the statistics everything like packets allowed/blocked/TCP/UPD segment etc all say "0" as if it wasn't monitoring network traffic.

 

I'm using the Marvell Yukon LAN port (seems to be recommended on these boards) do I have to tell the Network Access Manager which LAN connection I'm using and if so HOW?

 

Thanks

It's not recommended that you use the nvidia firewall it cause problems.

And you can only use it with nvidia lan network port/drivers .
