Nighthawk XR1000 Dos Attack Issues

[DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.201.32,port 10001 Ok I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to router and DDOS attacks but I am currently a full time content creator on youtube/twitch and experienced some serious connection issues recentely that I haven't experienced before.

 

I have a nighthawk xr1000 that option wasn't available in the drop down menu.

 

My router logs are full of messages similar to this "DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.201.32,port 52975" and they are coming in ever couple of seconds for hours.  I have no idea how to prevent this but I feel like it's causing issues with me keeping my connection.  My internet speeds are 1000 down and 100 up if that helps.  

 

Here's a few examples of errors I've received:

 

[DoS attack: ACK Scan] from source 13.226.18.69,port 443

[DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.201.32,port 52975

[DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.201.32,port 57911

[DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.199.214,port 2190

[DoS attack: Fraggle Attack] from source 66.129.200.105,port 2190

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

DoS attacks on NG routers are normal and generally false positives. What are the connection issues you're having exactly and what settings are you using?

Settings are basically the defaults as I’ve just gotten the router. Essentially my stream will disconnect from the Twitch server but my internet wouldn’t go out. It was very odd.

Disable DumaOS Classified Games on the QoS page under Traffic Prioritization and any other rules you may have added there and see if that resolves it please.
