Would changing the Allstar port number help, or would the bad guys just discover this in short order?

I would guess your getting attacked all around and over loading your router. If you have a consumer-grade router. I would call att and see if they have anyway of looking to see if your being attacked. Getting a new IP address should help. Login to your router check to see what your WAN/Public IP address.
