You need to change the syslog port on the router side to 1024 if you're using the mac syslog client.
Also, that's great that got things working
The reason it happens is the UDP threshold is fairly low - with a network generating enough UDP traffic, that can get triggered and because DNS uses UDP, that gets blocked too, upping the threshold also works.

I am having real trouble getting Syslog on my Mac!
Even tried running Windows syslog on XP under VMware but this has not worked either!
However I DO have full Firewall and DoS enabled including UDP Flood control, I will try and disable and see if that improves things.
I am puzzled though why it was working perfectly for nearly two weeks and then starting exhibiting these problems.
