AC1750 Router Logs Showing (nearly) Duplicate Entries

When inspecting this Netgear Nighthawk AC1750 Router's Logs, several (nearly) duplicate entries have me a bit perplexed. The 'Login admin failure' and 'DHCP IP' entries appear one immediately following the other at approximately 20 second intervals. Other than a panty sniffer type living nearby that might get-off on spoofing my device's MAC and IP addresses for whatever reason, (which I fear may be a distinct possibility), what other logical explanations might exist for these occurences taking place? What actions would you suggest? I also found a 'Block Attack' entry that I found to be curious.

 

According to the router's update feature the most recent firmware is installed: V1.0.4.106_10.0.80 

 

Below are a few examples of what I'm referring to. Thanks!
