I have a Belkin Pre-N wireless (3 ariels) and it most certainly has a firewall. It will respond to pings unless you tell it not too. The firewall is SPI (stateful packet inspection) and NAT (no PAT unfortunately). You can turn off firewall, especially if set router to Access Point mode where firewall is off implicitly.

I think many of the Belkin stuff is similar.
