Constant ack port scan dos attacks Xr700 nighthawk
To begin with,everyone stay safe and healthy. I have an xr700 nighthawk gaming router,ordered especially new from Germany,as I wasn’t able to purchase it in Russia. For some time I’ve been getting so...
Did you get the router recently? Sometimes it can take awhile for it to sync properly with the ISP. Set the MAC address of the XR to the MAC address of your old router as this can speed it up and resolve the issue.
I got it more than a year ago.
- Upgrade to this firmware please and then once it has applied do a factory reset from the interface and see if the issues continue.
https://kb.netgear.com/000061714/XR700-Firmware-Version-1-0-1-24-Hot-Fix - I’ve tried the latest and the newest firmware,factory reset on both of them. No changes at all
- How is the router/modem that the XR is connected to setup? Is it using DMZ, bridge mode or modem mode?
- This modem is owned by my ISP. I don’t know how to explain it,I live in 17 store house with many flats.
UPD on situation. All those ports and up adresses seem to be useful in some way. For example,I blocked 442 and 50002 and my internet went straight back to 90s. Packet loss and ping problems seem to be happening instantly now. Skipped spike RTT. Comes on after like 40 mins of gaming.
In any means,i don’t think 20/20mb/S and 10 ping(usually 2) and 40jitter(usually 0.4) and 7%packet loss is acceptable. My ISP has changed my ip BTW aswell. Nothing has changed. Is there a way to block those up adresses specially on these router? Maybe there is a way to finally solve this? - UPD. As of today I fixed my dos attack thing. Seems to be just my pc acting weird over WiFi. LAN is all good. Now,constant RTT spikes show up. Doesn’t affect anything but my speed on speed test tho,and only on WiFi divices(pc shows a solid 700+)
Any ideas? - I think that will be detecting the packet loss on your line, it may be possible to reduce this by trying different Anti-Bufferbloat percentages.
