I chose hardware firewall, but in reality I am behind three firewalls.My main router has NAT firewalling,then my server acts as a firewall and my workstation uses Shorewall. Each of the pair of networked Windows stations are behind their own router and each uses ZoneAlarm. So thats nine total firewalls on my network. 4 hardware and 5 software.

I am using the one that came with my router. I know, it is not good to have only one, but it is what I have for now.
