Help Interpreting Log Message

Hi, and many thanks for your reply.

The first place I contacted was my ISP, who supplied the router, but all they could suggest is to change the SSID.

I really can't see how changing the SSID on the router would stop a device wirelessly connected to that router sending out these Pings of Death as it would still be connected to that same network. I did move it to a different subnet and, as expected, the same thing happens.

The Ping of Death messages occur in a block every 6 hours, there are 22 of them in the block, 1 every second and not all targeting the same ip address - some to my routers ip and others remote ip's which I believe are Amazon addresses.

I have contacted the manufacturer of the product involved, a Ring Chime Pro v2 and they think it's the router misinterpreting or mishandling the messages.

Hi Tony, and many thanks for the reply.

The source address of 192.168.1.57 is that of my Ring Chime Pro and the MAC address matches.

I've been in contact with Ring and they believe the Chime Pro is unlikely to have been hacked but are sending a replacement and have asked me to return this one for their software people to examine.

Certainly the Chime Pro is probably the least intelligent of all the devices on my network, so probably the least likely target for hackers - what would they get from hacking it?

It will be interesting to see if yje problem goes away with the new chime.

Best Regards

Peter

Thanks Peter

192.168.1.57 is a Ring Chime Pro2. Ring don't think it's infected but are sending a replacement.

What I've not been able to establish is whether the router is dropping these pings or sending them out on the WAN.

Best Regards

Peter
