That router is passing stuff that should never get past it UNLESS you 
have set a Port Forward NAT. If you have NOT set that up, it will get 
you hacked, so apply a hammer to "take it out of the gene pool" and 
deposit the remains in the outgoing trash forthwith and replace it with 
something you can reflash to dd-wrt. Nothing comes in thru dd-wrt that 
you don't specifically allow, and has stood guard here for nearly 20 
years now.  Unlike guard dogs, it never sleeps.
