No, I have reset the VM router, logged in to it and stopped the firewall (as a modem it should not be using it as far as I know), saved settings logged in again and changed it back to a modem only with no wi-fi etc. Rebooted it, rebooted the Asus router, reboot the system and still have the same problem - I would say I am pulling my hair out (if I had any) as totally at a loss som any ideas are wellcome - What can I use that is Linux based that I can do a port scan ?
