IP spoofing

My Netgear router is showing IP spoofing from a local lynksys router, In other words someone in my area is trying to spoof my IP address. My question is how do I know if they are trying to spoof a PC address or my routers address. What would they gain by either and if they spoofed the routers IP address could they use my internet access? Last but not least would they show up on my router if they did and how do I make sure they don't successfully spoof my IP address?
