how to set this box? in the advance - setup -
i have researched thisDisable Port Scan and DoS Protection and i just do not see a real answer. i see both answers. some say check that box and some say leave it alone. i had to do a factory reset ...
and to this one michealkenward i did got to that page and in the usb page i was asking if anone had a answer for what usb devices work with the c7000 modem router.
with the old modem i had i fo to that page and it would give me 3 usb devices that it liked and then a box that said try anu usb device and see if it may work.
on the c7000 modem that option is not anywhere in the 3 choices. and in advance i see it has some items checked for enable and then some for needing to input a admin type password. so that is about as clear as mud. so because it is hard to get that one answered i will just forget about evenusing that port onthe back the device. but thanks for trying jsut mark it solved. or the next reply i get i will just accept it and move one. thanks
never mind i will as the guy at the gas station it seems i asked it real simple how shoukt that dos and port scan box be set checked or unchecked. but it seem no one relly had the answer here. thanks
Sensible answers need questions that make sense.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what you want to do.
I start here in the desktop genie:
Does it look familiar?
ihave been down that road. what happes is more than one helper stepsin and instead of reading form the beginning they start in mthe middle and then the person saking get fustratied.
i started asking how to check that bos in the advance setting wan then you have 5 options to eithe check or not check. by default the 2 one down gets checked and by having that box checked i got so may entries in the logs, so i was asking if that bos had to remain checke or not.
i looked it up in the forums and there is not real answer that got answered. so uning the netgear gene on the computer open it go to advanced then to settings then click the wan setup and tell me the second question it has do i leave that box not checked or do i have to check that box.
