data packets, to make your Internet connection
become very slow, even unusable. Check this box
and the router will ignore all inbound PING
requests. But when you activate this function, you
will not be able to ping your own router from the
Internet, either.
Port Scan (3):
Some malicious intruder will try to use a 'port
scanner' to know how many ports of your Internet
IP address are open, and they can collect a lot of
valuable information by doing so. Check this box
and the router will block all traffic which is trying to
scan your Internet IP address.
Sync Flood (4):
This is another kind of attack, which uses a lot of
fake connection requests to consume the memory of
your server, and try to make your server become
unusable. Check this box and the router will filter
this kind of traffic out.
