Hi, I begin this as a new topic, as i heard the recent router attackers point to this port for attacking the routers. Avast scan, shows vulnerability and one need to close it. Ok.
But my point is , if the default settings need the port to be open, would it not stop some function of internet access, if you close the port and disable the configuration. What i want to ask it , whether could one safely close the port. I do not know, but most routers have their configurations for tr69 configuration, thro this port. If i disable, as avast could read my external ip, would it not stop any internet access . Suppose, servers are configured in such a way to give you external ips thro this port? i do not know. I want experts from this forum to tell me more on this
