IGMP turned off but still probing (resolved)

I have disabled IGMP on the Billion 8800NL but still see logs in the software firewall indicating that IGMP probes are still being sent.

They are blocked but I wonder why they are still being sent after I have disabled IGMP.

Inbound, local & remote ports = 0

I expected them to stop after disabling IGMP :?:

What logs are you seeing??

Do you mean on the firewall log within the router??

Have you tried to restart the router once IGMP is disabled?

:oops: I hadn`t restarted the router - this seems to have fixed it now.

Lesson learned: always reboot after making settings changes !

Thanks billion_fan, I should have known better.
