Your problem may not be at your end, but with Netgear.
Netgear recently released fixes for several of its routers after the University of Wisconsin at Madison discovered that thousands of the company's units were flooding the university with time server requests. Such attacks are usually deliberately created by crackers, but in this case the blizzard of requests was created by Netgear routers all over the *world* asking, "What time is it?" thanks to a bug in the firmware.
This applies to models RP614, RP614v2, DG814, MR814 and HR314. If you have one of these routers, there's an updated firmware patch at http://find.pcworld.com/37961.
If that doesn't help, well, I guess we'll burn that bridge when we come to it. :)
