Dos attacks causing internet loss
hi there. So for the past month I keep getting dos attacks in my logs and it is causing service disruptions where the internet will just drop and then will reload once the dos attacks have stopped. ...
Hi Wolf- the Dos attacks are likely a false reading. If you google the log entry you will see many posts on this forum and elsewhere confirming you can ignore them. It's mostly just Internet white noise.
Which means your issue is likely to be elsewhere. Do you lose Internet across your entire home, or just on your router? If your entire home, have you contacted your ISP to see if they can test for line issues?
