I'm seeing about 10 attacks per day in the logs. I've checked their IP's and they are not the false positive scenarios like Facebook, Amazon, or Dropbox.
Should I be concerned?
Yes, Orbi's firewall does not accept connection attempts from the internet until the user deliberately sets up either port forwarding, Remote Administration, or OpenVPN. These log entries are the result of firewall logic which collects connection requests and attempts to assign them to categories. I monitor two Orbi systems and they both regularly log about 30 of these "attacks" every day. (Yes, every day.) I have seen comments that Netgear's logic is flowed and logs things as "attacks" that are not.
I do not recall seeing any "snmp" events in my log files.
Be Concerned? I think not. If you would rather not see the entries in the log file, there is an option to stop logging them.
I believe this is the same one.

http://www.zyxel.com/us/en/products_services/p_660r_compact_series.shtml?t=pThat clearly states that it's a modem router. So, the problem is that the Zyxel is blocking the ports from being opened. You either need to put it into bridge mode, if at all possible. Or, alternatively, you need to put the WNR2000 into AP Mode (via ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless AP).
