Nighthawk MR80: DoS attack: NetBiosReply Drop -- fixed

Recently, I noticed several lines in my Router Log that were eventually flooding the Router and causing the LAN connection to drop. The QUICK fix was to disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP in case anyone had this same issue. Attached an image of how to d disable NetBIOS on Windows.

 

 

Example of these logs:
