Port forward was dropped?

I connect into my PC from my phone via VPN.

In the Hub2 router, I have ports 1701 and 1723 set for the L2TP protocol which windows uses for VPN.

 

Today (and I thought I was imagining it a few days ago) I've been unable to connect.

Logged into the router when we got home to find that 1723 had vanished.

Why?

I'm also seeing devices that have connected to the router and had throughput - some in the GBs. I don't recognise any of them (but helpfully the hub doesn't display the last connection time - not that I can see anyway).

I need a new signature... i'm bored of the old one!
