Anyone have a clue what this might be?

Might it be possible that RoadRunner is scanning with some technique
designed to detect NAT, specifically on those Linksys and Netgear Cable/DSL
routers?  Those routers use 192.168.1.0/24 by default, and 192.168.1.2 would
be the first internal client machine.

While NAT doesn't seem to be against their policies, they charge money for
every NAT client for business RoadRunner.  Perhaps they're scanning as a
precursor to institute a new policy against NAT?

> most of the entries are from 24.25.225.71 (an RR Server with telnet
running) and every now and then one from 24.25.225.70 (again an RR server
with telnet). My systems IP is 66.8.228.32.  I have no system with a
192.168.1.0/24 address.  There are also several with 192.168.0.0/24
addresses and I don't have any of those either.  I have several thousand of
these entries.  I have checked my system and can't find anything to lead me
to think it has been compromised.  Do you have any clue what this is.
