DoS Attack
[DoS attack: ICMP Flood] source: 163.116.145.50, Apr 13 23:06:34
I have had no end of trouble with my Cox Service over the last couple of weeks and finally decided to dump the Cox provided modem and get my own since nobody in the support pipeline as Cox seems to be actual troubleshooters.
At least now my NetGear Modem lets me see logs.
Anyway, since I installed the NetGear modem I am seeing DoS and WANATTACK traffic popping up from the IP address above.
That Subnet is registered to Japan, though I have also seen it connected to Bot farms in France.

Actually that's common. I am always getting probed, as long as you have good security software, it isn't a problem. There will always be someone out there probing for vulnerabilities. Though, Japan is a new one on me, mine are normally from China and Korea.
