Firewall getting hit...help...
My internet has been slow as heck lately. Sometime pages take minutes to load...sometimes seconds. After playing around with my router, I checked the security log and got this:
Fri Jul 22 17:47:19 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:19 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:19 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:41 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:41 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:42 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:42 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:42 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:42 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:48 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:52 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:59 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:47:59 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:02 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:05 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:06 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:06 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:11 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:17 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:28 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:29 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1 Fri Jul 22 17:48:29 2005 1 Blocked by DoS protection 10.160.116.1
As you can see, something is hitting my firewall several times a second...but as I understand it, 10.160.116.1 is not a public IP address. Can this be what is slowing my internet down? Anyone have any ideas how to stop this relentless hits? Please realize that I'm not a techno-wiz...so layman's speak would help.
Thanks!
