As above, are they source or destination ports - I don't recognize the pattern.
They are the "Remote" ports.. I had to chop off some of the other text as there would have been far too much per line..

... as you can see, Remote & Local ports seem to vary.. Its just so strange to see this connection hitting me time after time, day after day.. hour after hour; i.e I got a little more concerned when the pattern seemed to be 2am.. 6am ..
