Hi
I've just corrected my email entries in my new Netgear router and am getting one of these every couple of minutes.
[DoS attack: ACK Scan] from source: 84.93.229.133:14300
These are interspersed with other odd non-PN address, far more than I ever noticed with my previous router, when I might get a couple of odd ones a month.
Is there anything I can do to stop the PN ones and OOI what are they?
Cheers

Hi
It looks as if my incorrect mail server setting initiated the reports and it took a few minutes to straighten itself out.
Thanks

Hi there,
ACK hints that the server is trying to respond to something, so either there is something on your network trying to access your mail via IMAP or packets are getting dropped somewhere - if you're not seeing many errors on your router stats then chances are it's the former and something is trying to get mail which the ACKs are in response to.
