So i recently figured how to set my router from Mobile broadband to Ehternet broadband beacuse my internet was very slow. After i configurated that i just the log randomly and i see thousands of "DoS" Attacks. They still come everyday about 200 times. Even though i'm a bit of a "noob" to computers, i still know what this means. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Assuming your router either doesn't have DoS protection, or it isn't working, get your public IP address changed. You may need to call your ISP and have them release the IP/MAC off their DHCP server. If you have Static IP, you'll need to request a new one and reconfigure your router appropriately.

If the problem starts up again later, you likely have some malicious software on the computer notifying the attacker of your IP, or they've attained it from you accessing a specific account/website they log your IP/Account Name on (like phishing). If you want to get passed this, I'd recommend a VPN if you can't figure it out.

That's what I would do anyway.
