Since the logging capabilities of your Linksys falls far short of your WatchGuard (as does the price), there isn't a utility like what you're looking for. Link Logger is as far as it goes for the Linksys.

If you want to see the raw logging data sent out by the Linksys in Link Logger then go to the ...

port 6346 is used for gnutella, Bearshare, Limewire, so its possible that whoever had that IP address before you (I'm assuming its not a staticly assigned IP address), used one of these file share programs. It should stop soon as the servers find out your not running one of these programs.

I enabled SPI, and I would recommend that other people should as well. NOTE that enabling SPI will stop any forwarded ports. So if you need port forwarding, do not enable SPI. Triggers still work correctly with SPI enabled.

No, but they might try probing other ports since they know your there in order to find a chink in the amour. This isn't to say that stealth is any better, as they still might try probing other ports and see if one is available, but its more unlikely.

Cheap rule of thumb, if its inbound traffic with a non internal IP address as the destination IP, then its blocked. The nature of NAT is like a door with a handle only on the inside.
