Shouldn't it be stealth? I have all feature turned off under aicloud and usb application tab.

Firmware:3.0.0.4.374.40_alpha4 (Merlin)

Router: RT-AC68U

Dont worry about it.

nmap 127.0.0.1 - this would not show stealth ports, would show closed ports.

nmap -sS 127.0.0.1 - this would show stealth ports and closed ports.

nmap -Pn 127.0.0.1 this would show ports if you tried to block ping probes.

To sum up, if someone is trying to scan your ports, Closed or Stealth doesnt make a difference to someone who knows what they are doing.

Thanks, I also checked Microsoft KB and it doesn't affect win 7.
