R8500-V1.0.2.80_1.0.71 - Port 68 shows closed NOT Stealth

Here we go again. I just got around to checking this and sure enough the Port 68 closed problem

is back! I will not use a firmware that does not stealth ALL my ports.

 

Went back to DDWRT and ALL ports are STEALTH. Why can't Netgear get this right?

    I reset modem, reflashed firmware, reset again then manually put in my settings.

    No ALL Stealth.

    What are you using to scan the ports. My port 68 is stealth as are the rest.

      Shields up. Port 68 is Blue all others are green.

       

      I install DDWRT and everything is stealth. Why is this? Its not my ISP for sure.
