This log shows the router starting at 07:09:31. When the router starts, the entire log file prior to the startup is erased. There may have been all sorts of log entries overnight, but they are gone. Those DoS log entries are from the time the router started and the time the log file was copied.
It is suspicious that the firmware was reloaded and the router restarted "about 8:00", yet the log shows 07:09. It would appear that the router time setting is not consistent with your clocks. (in the US, Daylight Saving Time ended just recently). It might be a good idea to check the Network Time Protocol (NTP) setting on the web interface, advanced Tab, Administration menu, NTP settings.
