today morning when i turned on my pc and connected to wifi..i saw my antivirus'(k7) firewall blocking some incoming connections from remote pc. It showed:
Rule: Implicit
remote computer: (some ip)
local computer: (my ip)
protocol:something.

I tried to trace the ip since the connections were non-stop , there were multiple ips and some of them showed location Sharjah, UAE , Some showed AL-AIN, UAE , Some showed netherlands..

There were 5000 such enteries in my firewall log.
i Tried changing my ip using vpn...i also changed my mac using technitium mac changer...but i still recieve such connections....one alert popped out just now... the ip is:- 157.48.9.123 .


here is the screenshot for your reference:-https://ibb.co/goD5Ak

If you can restart the router its possible you can cause it change external IP. Granted a lot harder but worth a shot. If your the first on or last off so it doesn't cause any problems. You will have to know the admin password to access and most are either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 to pull up the rounters control page.

That sounds more like someone is trying to brute force attack your firewall. Try shutting down your dsl for a bit so your ISP assigns another ip. Disconnect when you go to bed and plug your dsl backup in the morning should get your another ip unless your on a static package with your ISP.

Also I suggest using another browser like firefox with noscript addon. No script will allow you to look at pages while blocking java unless you allow.
