My home firewall runs Ubuntu. It doesn't accept (new) incoming packets from the internet. I don't have any IoT devices except printers, whose packets the firewall rejects, and has done since I bought them. Do I need to do anything apart from wait for the patch to become available?

How does your internet work, if the firewall doesn't accept incoming packets?

  • It accepts packets for established tcp connections, that is opened by a device on LAN.
