I didn't scan my network for 2 weeks -- blunder on my part. I found that port 23 was open to the router! I was also still running the default login password. In Dd-wrt I had remote telnet disabled even though it was clearly working through the WAN connection. Probably a bug in the older firmware I was running. Be careful! And always good practice to scan your network after making such a critical change in your networking devices. Try to run a scan from outside of your network if possible.....
