I have written to my antivirus assistence and after some controls they have answered that the problem is in my roter (D 1500).

Many people have the same problem and all with this router.

Are you aware of this problem? what can i do to solve? I have already updated the firmware but the problem remains

Thank you very much

   As always, an actual version number would be more useful than your
opinion of what's "updated" today.

   "185.38.111.1" seems to be someplace in CZ.

This is an old article but it may offer you some pointers.

If you are a NETGEAR customer with a security-related support concern, you can contact NETGEAR custo...

Many times when someone complains that AV software says a router is dangerous, or in your case a modem.router, the problem is often down to the AV software. If you ask them about it, they will naturally blame the router because it is easier than fixing their own system.

The only complaint I can see here is from you.
