No change on the router, this started exactly when I updated the node software on Thursday.
As soon as I saw what was happening, I disabled the firewall and the DDOS protection on the router (It’s a Draytek 2865) and I’ve since enabled them again. If the connections were being blocked by the router, I wouldn’t expect to see a connection attempt in the debug log on the Pi.
