Re: DoS Attacks

Hi,

Hope this finds you well and safe, I have been having issue like this since 1.08.2020 too after I created port forwarding for port 80 for my IIS Webserver lab and reset my whole router yesterday and disabled also my port forwarding and upnp too and now everything is back to normal. I wish there was a way to configure to be safe when you do port forwarding like block ip that are trying to hack like Synology does on their NAS.

Sorry was ranting a little to have bought Netgear routers for all these years and nothing gets changed and I still love them but next time my money goes to Asus or Synology, for example my issue is when I want to use latest firmware the router doesn’t work as should and I have to downgrade to older firmware which makes the router vulnerable.

To make it short disable any port forwarding if you have them and disable the UPnP.

Hope that is helpful and wish you lovely day

Re: DoS Attacks

Netgear's firmware is great at creating false reports of DoS attacks. Many of them are no such thing.

 

Search - NETGEAR Communities – DoS attacks

 

Use Whois.net to see who is behind some of them and you may find that they are from places like Facebook, Google, even your ISP.

 

Here is a useful tool for that task:

 

IPNetInfo: Retrieve IP Address Information from WHOIS servers
