I'm using DSLExtreme. I wouldn't have thought of that. I think
DSLExtreme had an optional firewall option. Hopefully that firewall is
upstream and shields my poor little dynamic IP from the hostile Internet.

I seem to have the same problem now, with a Roadrunner connection.
Is it possible to verify that the router is indeed stymied by scans?
My router becomes completely unresponsive even after I cycle the power
to both modem and router. Does this mean the router is getting hacked
and running something that's downloaded from the net?

Is yours stock or flashed? The stock firmware on some of those had an
issue where it wouldn't time out connections and eventually eat up all
the available ports. Most the aftermarket firmware alleviates this,
it's only really a problem if you do tons of P2P.
