Yes, UPnP is disabled in the router.

I'm wondering in "2008/07/08, 05:40:15.921, GMT -0400, 2010, Device 3"
as to what is "device 3". Might it be whatever is plugged into the port
numbered 3 on the router? If so, is that your host or another one? If
another one, try yanking the cable out of port #3 on the router to see
if it all quiets down.
Hello VanguardLH,

The firewall (Deerfield Visnetic) recognizes and lists four devices or
"adapters".
#1 is labeled \DEVICE\NDISWANBH (? a WAN miniport)
# 2 is labeled Dialup Adapter
#3 is labeled Local Area Connection
#4 is labeled Local Area Connection

(#3 and #4 correspond to two LAN connections on the motherboard, which
correspond to two networking adapters seen in Device Manager. Only the
one corresponding to Local Area Connection #3 on the firewall is being
used.)

I have configured the firewall to block everything on adapters #1
and #2 and #4.

The one I use is Device #3, LAN.

Returning to the original question, a summary, as I see it (not
necessarily correctly):

It seems the router is sending udp packets to 255.255.255.255 (both
source and destination ports = 520, or to 192.168.1.255 (source port
ranging from 7000 to 7259, and destination port 162.

I have no idea what this all means.

Again, I appreciate your help.

Jack
