    UDP packets logged in netgear ADSL router logfile

    Should I worry when I see things like this in my ADSL router logfile?

    Sun, 2010-03-21 01:24:37 - UDP Packet - Source:137.99.150.162,19759 Destination:192.168.0.201,23017 - [DOS]

    Suddenly my router log is flooded with these things - I upgraded the firmware about an hour ago perhaps there was a bug in the previous version where it didn't log these when it should have?

    I wouldn't lose sleep over it to be honest. I would be surprised if your router didn't get any of these types of traffic. But if you really want to lose sleep of it, you may want to contact the system owners of the below host and tell them that their systems are probing your private network, not that they would notice or anything.

      Not really, provided you've set your router security and access list to your network plus firewall and AV up, I wouldnt lose any sleep.
