Block a DoS attack in a C3000 100-NAS?

I'm receiving multiple different DoS attacks. It's not too bad, since it's not knocking my internet out for hours on end. But it is disrupting traffic to my servers, and causing my family to disconnect from the network. I have "Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection" and "Respond To Ping On Internet Port" unchecked in Advanced > Setup > WAN Setup, and this isn't working to stop the attacks.

 

The types of DoS attacks I'm receiving are:

 

  1. Ping of Death
  2. Teardrop or Derivative
  3. Illegal Fragents

Is there something I can do through the router to block this attack?

Your router is blocking the attacks.  The problem is that the attacks need to be prevented from reaching your Internet link in the first place.  Otherwise, your link will still be congested.  Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do directly on your end.  With a C3000, you can't even change your IP address.  You could try asking your ISP for help.
