Any hardware firewall can be used and about all (free) software firewalls.

Be Secure...
You could always try the "best" free firewall...

The Comodo free firewall link is soooooo long, I had to use the "tinyURL" site to shorten it. ;)
Been using Comodo for years & never had a problem with either it or getting anything nasty on my M/C.
It does exactly what a good firewall should.
 
Stay safe.

Be Secure,  Google is your friend. Search "Free Firewall Software"/and Reviews.
Do some research, and you'll quickly get to know what's available.
As far as commonly used Free Firewalls by Avast users here on the Forum, Ive noticed these:
OutPost FW
Private FW
Comodo FW
and there's others. :)
