GL.iNet Flint2 (GL-MT6000) - ethernet connection query

Hi

This may be a bit of an odd question.

I have an Arcam SA20 hifi amplifier. It's possible to control it using an Ethernet connection via a phone app, The amplifier also has a handy auto timer standby function. If it's not being used for 20mins it enters into a power-saving standby mode.

However, I've discovered when connected to the ethernet/router, the Amp does not enter standby. Arcam tech support suggest that the router is sending discrete signals and keeping the amp alive. I'm a noob. Is there a method of checking if this is the case? (And if so, can the router behaviour be altered not to do this?).

Thanks for any advice.

tcpdump the traffic going to the IP of the Arcam.
