DoS Attack - Connection and Latency Issues

I am suffering from disconnection and latency issues and checked my Netgear C6300 logs and I see a bunch of [DoS attack] ICMP Flood and more recently, [DoS attack] AIF:Dropped INPUT packet: Do I need to change my IP? How can I fix this?

    Hi kkelleher,

     

    Good day!

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    First of all, we do apologize for the inconvenience of not getting back to you immediately due to the backlog in the system. Were you experiencing this before or just recently? Does rebooting your modem/router fix the disconnection? How often is the disconnection? 

     

    Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance. 

     

    Regards,


    Oliver
