I've had a reply from support finally. I ws told the firewall I ordered is physically installed and online (I already knew that since I can ping and traceoute to it's ip), but still needs to be enabled.
I'm not expecting that to be done any time soon though based on what i've seen so far...appalling really since I paid so much for it. (Expiry is aligned with the server's expiry date....My server expires in 3 months....I paid a few months ahead once to make sure it never expires if I have trouble paying for it one month).
I'll continue to wait, but for obvious reasons, i'm not happy at all with ovh at the moment. Only reason i'm not moving away completely are due to the high cost of other hosts for a comparable server, and the hassle of actually moving all my data (my server runs all my e-mail, dns, and also redirects requests for my main site...moving all that would not be a trivial task).
