Woo hoo! I think I finally found the culprit all these years who 
was telling winnat to reserve random 1300 ports upon every reboot!

 C:\> netsh interface ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp
       Protocol tcp Port Exclusion Ranges
       Start Port    End Port
       ----------    --------
             5357        5357 (1 port excluded)
            33476       33575 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            33576       33675 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            33676       33775 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            33776       33875 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            33876       33975 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            33976       34075 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34076       34175 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34176       34275 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34276       34375 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34376       34475 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34476       34575 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34576       34675 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            34694       34793 (100 ports randomly excluded)
            50000       50059     *  (60 ports excluded)
       * - Administered port exclusions.

I looked up what Hyper-V is, and I don't think I need it.
So I got rid of it. 

 PS> Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All
     FeatureName      : Microsoft-Hyper-V-All
     DisplayName      : Hyper-V
     Description      : Provides services and management tools for creating and running virtual
                        machines and their resources.
     RestartRequired  : Possible
     State            : Enabled
     CustomProperties :

Disable Hyper-V 
 PS> Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All

Reboot:
 C:\> shutdown /r /t 0


When the machine came up, I checked that Hyper-V is disabled.
 PS> Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All
     FeatureName      : Microsoft-Hyper-V-All
     DisplayName      : Hyper-V
     Description      : Provides services and management tools for creating and running virtual
                        machines and their resources.
     RestartRequired  : Possible
     State            : Disabled
     CustomProperties :

Now, when I check, the 1300 random reservations are finally gone!
 C:\> netsh interface ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp
       Protocol tcp Port Exclusion Ranges
       Start Port    End Port
       ----------    --------
             5357        5357
            50000       50059     *
            55500       55600     * <== I had reserved these 101
       * - Administered port exclusions.

If anyone else has Hyper-V enabled (whatever the heck that is), 
can you check to see what ports you have reserved by Winnat?
