I hope I may be allowed to expand a bit on the OP's question. 

What are the advantages of a hardware firewall over a firewall built
into a router? 

Can one use both, or should the firewall in a router be disabled if there
is a hardware firewall? 

If the OP finds that he has a firewall in his router, would there be any
reason for him to install a software firewall such as shorewall?
