Reset the Netgear to DEFAULT factory settings. Quit screwing around
paranoid and you'll be just fine.

The sygate website quickscan is CRAP! I have a full FTP server
(Cerberus) running behind the Netgear RP114 router here and there are
two friends using it right now! Sygate Quckscan says my port 21 is
BLOCKED, just like it does every other port. My port 21 is directed
to my computer with the FTP server running on it! So the test is
crap!

Default Netgear old RP114 at factory settings is full stealth on all
ports.....Geez even on the FTP calling port on this stupid
test!....(c;
