DoS attack, Teardrop or derivative, Ping of Death, strange non-DHCP IP address connected to wifi

I'm getting lots of Dos attacks logged in my C3000 modem/router. They appear to be coming from inside my network, from my wifi. I keep seeing a device attached to my wifi with an IP address of 1.1.15...

I dumped my Netgar in favor of a Surfboard SB6190 Cable Modem with a Asus wifi Router.  Works perfectly with no drops or issues.  I will NEVER be buying Netgear again.  You would think they would monitor these posts and chime in, but, crickets.

Calling them isn’t any better. I mean I shouldn’t have to go through line after line of WireShark to look at packets.
