Re: Is a router enough of a firewall?
You have posted two questions,topic question answer is: yes.
Second answer is no.
Not much gets inbound through a properly configured router that is not supposed to.
BUT, I think you'll find most people here prefer both, a layered approach to inbound security, so a software firewall is a back-up defense.
Also I like the outbound control that is usually not available in most SOHO routers, but I get with my software firewall.
