Router blocking firmware update in GPS -- Fix found, but ??

In alll honesty... Don't know if this should be in Software, Linksys, or Security forum.... I felt I'd have best chance here, though....

I've a Garmin GPS, Nuvi 660, and I'm finding my new router: Liksys RVS4000 is blocking the Garmin GPS Updater program from working correctly... It will download 50% of the new firmware, then freeze. By "Non-Blocking" all of the following, I find I can update the firmware... But I'd like to narrow down what was causing the blocking in the router..

Symptom: Firmware will not download past 50% using Garmin GPS Firmware Updater with the following blocked (except Skype, which is not blocked).
Solution: Non Block each of the following:

Linksys RVS4000 in the IPS area:
GNUTELLA_EZPEER Block
FASTTRACK Block
KURO Block
EDONKEY2000 Block
BITTORRENT Block
DIRECTCONNECT Block
PIGO Block
WINMX Block

This section of the IPS tab allows the network's administrator to manage specific IM/P2P functions for access.

Instant Messenger MSN Block
ICQ Block
YAHOO_MESSENGER Block
SKYPE Non-Block
IRC Block
ODIGO Block
REDIFF Block
GOOGLE_TALK Block
IM_QQ Block

Any ideas which would be the culpret? I won't be able to test again until the next firmware version.... which is months away. So I've email'd Garmin, and posted here...
Thanks...

P.S. I was going from V4.6 to V4.7 in the Nuvi 660

Until somebody figures out why, can you download onto computer and then install?

Actually, I un-blocked all and Updater software worked fine, so I knew it is one of the IPS 'blocks' I had just un-blocked.

Seeing that it will be months before I can try it again, I figured I'd post here, and take my chances. As mentioned, I've a email into support, but I bet they give me the 'Deer in the Headlights' answer....

Yeah but don't the updater use port 80. Sounds more like a personal firewall but I have had many routers and a few can be insane to figure out.

No, I got it down to one of the block/un-blocks from above.

When I finally got to Garmin, they took email and symptoms, and promise to forward it to the software folks, who may or may not get back to me...
