Got a dos attack on this router had to manually block the services port 67 and not 443 since that is dhcp and IP. So if anybody has any issues I suggest you check your logs and see if you have any ip...
ok so I went with your option and did a whois and is was my isp abusing a port and sending dos attack: fraggle attacks so I ended up copying the logs to send to comcast on this website https://internetsecurity.xfinity.com/help/report-abuse they mitigated the issue now thanks for your help much appreciated

Interesting.
Another interpretation would be that those reports are artefacts created by Netgear's logging system, which is known to be problematic.
- Your ISP is really not going to DoS you. It's a false positive, like 98% of the rest.
If Netgear can't mend this logging system, it should put those logs out of their misery and kill them off.
I have never seen any official response form Netgear. It doesn't even warn people that warnings are mostly rubbish, which is why we get people turning up here scared witless by them.
