I have the Netgear Nighthawk R7000 and would like to block an inbound IP address. I've looked in the UG but did not find anything related to blocking an IP address.

Hi @jgt1942,
The router does not have that feature as it has a firewall that deals with the inbound traffic. The NAT filtering provides secured firewall that will protect your PCs from attacks from the Internet or even access from outside your network.

Re: Block inbound IP address
Hello.
I suggest that Netgear add the service of blocking certain IP addresses.
After looking at the logs, I found that I was being scanned by an address in China (101.71.255.189).
How do I get this IP address blocked?
