Concerning message in router's firewall security log?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I am somewhat concerned about messages that keep showing up every couple of minutes. See the screenshot:



There is no computer named HP_PC in my network. All the names of computers in my network (around seven) are unique as assigned by me, so I would know.

Any ideas?

I searched Google regarding the WBM, and it seems to just be a bug in the firmware, so I am not concerned about that.

For reference, I have Verizon FiOS 25/25, and router model MI424WR-GEN2 Rev. F.

I have since disabled SSID broadcast, changed the SSID, and am about to change the password (although since they are unable to obtain an IP, I assume they do not have the password (WPA).

Disabling the broadcast and changing the SSID stopped the messages for about an hour...

Do you have UPnP enabled?

Offtopic: Use WPA2 not WPA.

I just disabled it and the messages stopped... thank you! Btw, doesn't WPA2 have the potential to slow down the connection because of an increased load on the router?

Glad it's working.

And there are no performance hits for using WPA2.
