Hi,
I have a set-up with Asus RT-NT66U router. Lately, its performance has been choppy every now and then. While trying to figure out what's going on, I realized that there is constant high incoming WAN traffic, app 2500-4000KB/s going on (according to Asus' own Traffic Monitor), see pic.
It's only incoming and it doesn't go through to any of my devices. If I turn off wireless and physically disconnect all wired devices, the incoming WAN traffic is still the same... The router has latest firmware and I have rebooted it, but no difference...
Should I be concerned about this? Is it a hacking attack and if so, can I do anything about it? Or is it something else? And, if so can it explain choppy performance?
Thanks!
