DDoS Protection
I was playing an online game and was DDoS'd. Is there a protection feature that Netgear offers to protect me and to make sure that this does not happen again in the future?
There is limited DoS protection offered by the firmware but it can cause issues and is most of the time inaccurate (many, many false positives). That said, you cannot really protect/stop a DDoS attack, unless you have really high-end, top of the line gear and a very fat connection.
