I heard that I need to block the port for the ECC to the Outside of my network
I take it this happens at my router from my ISP
how would I know what the correct port number is to block?
I should be able to take it from there

Besides the firmware OTA at startup, the "spamming" I have seen is a ridiculous amount of captive portal requests to different targets. TBH I haven't looked at the OTA request, so I can't tell if that is 80 (plain http) or 443 (https), but the captive portal checks are all on 80, that is likely what you are looking for.

To block it you need to block by a specific source (your ECC), otherwise other devices may report no Internet.

If you have a DNS-Sinkhole (PiHole, Ad Guard, technitium, etc) that is likely the best way to block it. As an added bonus you get whole house as blocking....
