old subject: WBM user change router firewall configuration

I have seen this subject in 2013 but could not find a definitive answer. I am seeing in my security log under event type "Configuration changes" on the firewall that (for example) "WBM user Unknown (0.0.0.0) has changed security settings[repeated 100 times, last time on Dec 21 20:55:22 2017] Cross referencing the time, I would see internal access from let's say my wife's iWatch IP address. I have changed password, access level to high, and other safety measures to no avail. So the question is this. What exactly is this mesage and what is causing it? Thanks

This might relate to UPnP. Do you have that enabled?

That setting was hidden on this page...

Who wouldve thought of it? Thanks I give that a shot. I am surprised it was enabled where prudent basic security should be disabled.

Totally agree. UPnP is something I turn off right away. Granted, it's on there by default for convenience. Less support calls on why some game console or application won't work right, and how to port forward.
