Can someone tell me why my Nighthawk x10 is making up false dos attacks?

I know for a fact that ubisoft isnt attacking me, I also know that Facebook isnt either.

    It is just Netgear's wonky logging of "attacks".

     

    People often turn up here thinking that they are under attack. Unlike you they don't check who is attacking them. So they are surprised when someone points out that it is Google, Facebook or some other innocent party.

     

    Think of it as a "feature".
