Hi,

I've just got a buffalo airstation. I love it. Recently, however, I've been getting log messsages every couple of seconds of this nature:

2007/05/29 18:42:08 FIREWALL TCP connection denied from 82.32.xx.xx:2894 to nn.nn.nn.nn:4662 (vlan1)

[IP addresses changed to protect the innocent]

Each IP appears about 5 times in total, usually not all together. There are 100s of IPs now in my logs. I don't know if this means I've mis-configured the router or if this is a DOS attack, or just plain normal. Searching for key phrases has not enlightened me. Anyone got any ideas what is going on?

Thanks.

David

After a little reading around and checking another log I now think this is a SYN flood attack. I'm not sure that there is much that I can do about it.
