From the official site:
Barring the network door.
AirPort Extreme includes a built-in firewall that creates a barrier between your network and the Internet, protecting your data from malicious Internet attacks. When you set up the base station, the firewall is automatically turned on to keep the bad guys out. For computers with a cable or DSL modem, using AirPort is actually safer than being directly connected to the modem.

Fastweb and using this router, it means that you can safely disable, in Windows, the firewall?
I noticed that the Windows firewall active, shipping was dreadfully slow dns resolution was slow going in the ftp timeout, which did not happen by connecting directly.
If you can disable it if given the characteristics of the Airport, and the NAT fastweb we can be certain.
please reply thank you .
