Hi,
I am running Nessus 3.  When connected directly to
cable modem scanning a particular host returns 2 or 3
ports open, as expected.

After installing a linksys router, same scan task (the
default) returns 4K open ports.  For each, it says the
host "closed the connection after 0 seconds".

What have I set incorrectly, or what can I set to
avoid this?  I have not been able to find anything in
the archives.

I apologize in advance if this is an obvious mistake.

tia
