Not at router, a firewall, and with rules of course. You're not making any real claims, but I assure you win10 behind a decent firewall setup is probably safer than 11 will ever be.

    That is an insane thing to say. Outbound connections can open you up to all kind of vulnerabilities which will be a lot better documented for Windows 10 than for 11.

    Your initial comment implied that the default firewall rules of blocking all inbound connections was sufficient. Since you're the one who's making big claims I was hoping you would enlighten us with those firewall rules of yours.

    I think you're making some assumptions on my behalf. I said a firewall, not windows firewall.

    Nobody was talking about Windows Firewall. You are clearly in the "fake it" phase of "fake it till you make it". Otherwise you'd post your magical custom outgoing NAT rules.
