Every 3 seconds, whenever this router is on, it broadcasts a UPNP announcement on UDP port 7423. With any other modem I've owned, there's a way to turn off UPNP broadcasts. This is a problem, some end stations don't power down properly with these constant, but undesired broadcasts. Netgear support vaguely says they can't or won't or don't want to fix.
If you feed a smart or managed switch from this router, there's a good chance you can filter this on the switch port.
