I presume thats not public information. The design of any router is mostly automatic now days. Simplified for end users to use. Most Home users just want to set up the router and use it. So no need for granular advanced controls.

If I read this correctly, this confirm RBR50 doesn't allow end user can customize services on the router, but those ports is fixed to open on the internet?
Will Netgear explain why open some ports not about general services, as below?
631/tcp open ipp?
5555/tcp open freeciv?
20005/tcp open btx?
33344/tcp open netusb TRENDnet NetUSB 1.02.95
