How can a switch port be blocked? What router is that?

A switch with packet storm prevention enabled, if the STB start sending too many packets abnormal packets to saturate the network the switch will block the port.

There is nothing in OpenPLi that is different. The hardware is the same, the drivers are supplied by Zgemma, the ethernet stack is Linux. Identical in OpenATV.

Possible. There are more options, but I still have to see a "2-bit" home router with such features.

Actually some $0.02 unmanaged switches have this feature, but totally non-configurable, so it's a PITA in the end.
I guess we don't send STP BPDU's in OpenPLi

OpenPLi is just performing some ping from time to time...

In an OpenPLi image, downloaded from our download pages, there is NOTHING that generates excessive network traffic.
It does a DHCP request on bootup, and when enigma starts, it checks internet connectivity by verifyting DNS and reachability of our download servers, using a standard ping. The only other components in the image that will generate a bit of network traffic are samba (it will do some broadcast announcements) and avahi (mDNS broadcasts).
You can install tcpdump if you want, to check exactly what communication takes place (be sure to filter your telnet/ssh session out).

As long as the router doesn't say why the port is being blocked, and we don't know what the box is doing, everything is speculation.
What you can do, is install tcpdump:
opkg install tcpdump
Then create the file /etc/init.d/rcS.local, and add the following line to it:
tcpdump -i eth0 -w /media/usb/capture.pcap
(assuming you have the option to connect a USB stick to it), and when done mark the file executable:
chmod 775 /etc/init.d/rcS.local
When the port blocks again, switch the box off, disconnect the USB stick, and upload the pcap file here so we can analyse it.

Wot?
Oscam doesn't do any network communication on its own, not unless you configure it to do so. And even then, a router should not start magically blocking ports...

Depends on what TS calls "blocking" the port. Is it a layer 2 or layer 3 feature? Spanning tree? BPDU blocking? basic firewall functionality?

True.
But as this is about a provider supplied modem/router, I really doubt these features are at play here...
