It’s my first post here. Yay! Happy to have found this site. We’ve been battling malware, compromised cellphones and all sorts of digital weird this year. Staying viligant i ran some scans on my home network and discovered a new port 49152 filtered tcp. I have not seen it before and was hoping for some help. My scanner labeled it a raop air drop audio listening port. Not sure about it. Plus when I scan my external IP, the scanning software shows it as based in the European Union but a check of the IP puts it with Comcast in the USA? So I don’t know what to ,are of it.
Equipment note:
I have the crappy Comcast gateway Arris model and I want to get rid of it and buy a real modem router firewall so any input on brands and models appreciated. There’s been a known vulnerability on this gateway since last summer and yet Comcast has not put out a patch. I am taking a proactive approach to our network security I have learned a lot this year but I have a ton more to learn..... so here I go.
Thanks
port 49152 raop
49152 is the first dynamic listening port, and as such it is used by many UPNP, embedded linux devices, etc. You can look through a list of the most common ones here:
