Hey so I've had my ISP out multiple times to help try and isolate a recent packet loss problem that has been reoccuring for the last month or 2 now. At first it would happen during the day and then s...

I'd recommend getting into a broadcom based modem first off.
Look up where those IP addresses are coming from using a WHOIS service.
Ask your ISP and see if they can change your WAN IP address.
Try a full reset of the router and setup from scratch. I would leave Armor disabled for a short period and see if the problems still happen.
FURRYe38 Hmm. That is interesting to find out. I will definitely be returning this at some point for sure. However my old Modem was a SB6141 from a few years back. I don't see that one in the list but I had began getting the packet loss with my old hardware (asus rtc3100 and that 6141 modem). Now the issue is still here, ISP is coming out a 3rd time with a more equipped tech they say, lol.
I have yet to call the Cyber Agency side of Xfinity, which they told me to do for the DoS things. They said they couldn't change my IP when I asked on the forum.
Now after using WHOIS I found out
United States Chicago Akamai Technologies Inc.
Comcast Aurora
And a new attack I haven't noticed yet [UDP FLOOD] that ip comes from
United States Atlanta Service Provider Corporation

I began receiving Denial of Service blockages from Netarmor on "Wyze camera" last night and awoke to this.

Starting to believe these are truly false-positives. It seems they must've failed to find the noise that's giving me troubles on their end. Or I can't seem to find out the issue on my end. Either way it's been a month or so and my online-gaming is subpar.

Some of the logs being seen on NG routers has been know to be false positives or just what the router is reporting. However id say get the ISP to replace the modem first thing, something with a broadcom chip set.
NGs CM1000 thru 2000 are all broadcom based.
They can change the IP address on the modem, they can do that at any time. Though they change it automatically, or if you keep the modem fully OFF maybe over night, this can trigger a new lease on the WAN IP.
SHow the tech these WHOIS entries...
