Lots of dos attacks from China?
So I'm getting a bunch of these right now and most of the IP's are from China. What should I do? [DoS Attack: SYN/ACK Scan] from source: 39.107.196.251, port 80, Thursday, October 24, 2019 21:04:...

YOu might power OFF the ISP modem and RBR, say right before you go to bed, then power ON in the morning and see if the logs are still filling up.
I would contact your ISP and check about changing the WAN IP address to see if this might help some.

Hi I just wanna say today the logs are much better. The attacks have gone back down to the bare minimum they are at normally. So good thing for that.

My logs have gone back to normal as well. Was exciting while it lasted.
