  • Yes, this behavior is dramatically worse today than before, by a factor of 4 or 5.

     

    There is nothing a person can do.  This is like those horrible robo-calls.  Some ghoul is sending packets to your public IP address and the Orbi firewall software is putting entries in the log saying that it recognizes patterns in those packets.

     

    The Orbi does not accept connections from the internet unless the user has specifically told it to (a) by activating Remote Management or (b) by setting up OpenVPN.

     

    It is possible to stop logging DoS and port scans.  They will still happen, but the log will no longer show them.

      I mean should I power cycle my modem and prob unit? Or should I call Comcast to change my I'm address?

        I do not see how changing the public IP address will accomplish anything.  People doing this are simply trying evey possible IP address. Likewise, power cycling the modem or Orbi won't change anything.

         

        (Editorial:  This situation is very much like the robo-call mess.  If our tiny Orbi can detect that someone is sending "bad packets" our way, surely the ISP network could detect this behavior at the source and take action against the people doing it.  Oh, well.)

      At the same time, the router's processor will not bust a gut as it tries to log all of those intrusions.

       

  • Same happening to me tonight, exponentially worse than I’ve experienced previously with slowdowns as well. Small clip of my logs:
