WNR3500Lv2 Open Ports
Hello,
I have set up this router with wifi off, dhcp off, Upnp off and only ports 8080, 8096 forwarded to backend servers. nmap scan shows
Discovered open port 443/tcp on 65.152.255.209

- wow what a pain... the ports are default services in the router that are open regardless if you use the service or not and can be closed by explicitly disabling the services... Advanced Tomato is an excellent alternative to this garbage interface, and I'm sure the support is better too because the bar is pretty low

I agree.

Thanks for the (redundant) explanation.

If you want "support", then you should probably talk to Netgear. If
you want to discuss your complaint, then providing some basic
information might help. A Web search for "life is like a sewer" should
find some relevant general advice.
