Er yes, typo I fear!
I appreciate that a router's firewall isn't all that smart, but I guess what I'm asking is whether there may be a problem in that the modem is presumably legitimately trying to talk to the router, but is being rebuffed by the firewall. I assume the answer is "no" but if that's the case, why is it trying it in the first place? (I'm thinking of an earlier thread to do with a particular brand of router being blocked for not playing ball with NTL's way of doing things, for instance?). Sorry if this is self-evident but it's all a bit of a black art to me as a broadband virgin
