DOS Attacks - Cause Router to Reset
My modem/router(firmware version is V2.02.08 and model is N600(C3700-100NAS)) randomly resets when it gets pinged with various DOS attacks like 'DoS attack: Ping Of Death' 'DoS attack: Teardrop or derivative' 'DoS attack: Illegal Fragments' I see these in the log in the 'Netgear Genie' (admin console site) and these dos attack occurrences usually show a 'count' of 1 or at most 4. The source and target ip addresses are always non-US ip addresses with various ports. What can I do to stop the resets or prevent these dos attacks from happening?
