Ok I am all set, first off the settings are entirely be default at set up. &nbsp;The settings all for outgoing traffic to initiate inbound traffic on a seperate port. &nbsp;In particualr games, but there are other uses....all of this is im &quot;Port Triggering&quot;<br />
<br />
&nbsp;L2TP Triggering - Layer Two Tunneling Protocol <br />
&nbsp;UDP Any -&gt; 1701 UDP Any -&gt; Same as Initiating &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;TFTP Triggering - Trivial File Transfer Protocol <br />
&nbsp;UDP 1024-65535 -&gt; 69 UDP Any -&gt; Same as Initiating

 UDP Any -> 1701 UDP Any -> Same as Initiating

 UDP 1024-65535 -> 69 UDP Any -> Same as Initiating

Just cause you took the time to get involved. &nbsp;Thanks

The router works great, but one thing I have noticed and can't get a n answer from the vendor on is that ...in the port forwarding there are several dozen (give or take) UDP ports open that I did not setup. &nbsp;My local expert thinks it might be the vendor access ports to monitor / update the router? &nbsp;heres is an example:<br />
<br />
192.168.5.7 &nbsp; 192.168.5.7 &nbsp; &nbsp;svchost (192.168.5.7:3414) 63944 UDP - UDP Any -&gt; 63944 Any <br />

I've taken the time to delete these but they always come back

I've got a Fairpoint/Verison router

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

Routers

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.

Network security consists of the policies adopted to prevent and monitor authorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. Network security involves the authorization of access to data in a network, and covers a variety of computer networks; conducting transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks can be private, such as within a company, and others which might be open to public access.
