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...
Same issue here, although it seems only the Apple devices are being associated with the public IP behind all the public attacks. It also only seems to assoicate with wifi devices. I have turned off all apple devices and currenly only have a Windows laptop on the wifi and the public attacks have stopped and no macs are associated with the public IP. I currently have three devices plugged in (not on wifi) and they have never "grabbed" that public IP. This is the public IP that devices have been getting 128.60.129.150. They have been attacking all random public IPs. I did a factory reset on the wifi router but that didn't do anything. I just don't understand why apple devices are only affected?! See the screenshot and it shows the "source" as that 128 which hops from the Apple mac adddresses only.
