Bull***. For lack of a NAT mapping, the router would have no idea where
to forward the traffic. Many-to-one NATs are stateful by nature. If you
persist in claiming such, I suggest you present a layer 2/3 packet
capture to that effect.
I'm guessing that this mysterious traffic is Windows multicast uPNP or
netbios name requests from the Netgear.
