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...
update:
I turned off the Router Mode on the c3000 and it rebooted itself. I added the Linksys N750 via the CD it came with and the setup could not have been easier. My speeds are amazing now! Regularly getting 115mbs upload speeds vs the 30 I was getting when i was just using the c3000 for both modem and router. no more conflicts with iphones and randomly assigned IPs.
New C7000 firmware last night to 1.0.28 if I recall the numbers did not change this DDoS attcks nor the ability to email logs. No idea what it did change, but yet another Netgear letdown.

Bob,
Thanks for your update, thats disappointing to hear:( Netgear support is really frustrating too, don't bother with it. I don't think they check these forums? Check JollyRoger72 (Tutor) response...
I found my HP Printer is sending "Ping of Death" to my Router.
New HP Printer, 2 weeks old.
Returning tomorrow!
I contacted HP, they told me it's not there fault.
Bought a Epson Printer, problem solved!
