ISP DoSing me (sorta)?

[hav0c]

Well I use a router to connect to the interent and it is set to disconnect after 300sec(5min) of inactivity. Well I leave my computer alone for about 30min come back and my router is still connected so I start up zone alarm to see if maybe a program was trying to get out or something keeping my connection alive. So I start browsing the web and then look at zone alarm this is what I saw
"The firewall has blocked Internet access to your computer (ICMP Unreachable) from 207.***.**.*" Occurred: 88 times between 7/21/01 9:02:42 AM and 7/21/01 9:09:26 AM

I did a nslookup and it was coming from my ISPs ip address. This was stoping my router from disconnecting I think. Why would my ISP do this? 88 times seems a little to much...

Email your ISP and ask if it is them and why they are doing that if it is them. Remember your isp may not be the actual one's doing the scanning. IT could be someone else that uses them as their isp and it is a ip that is registered to the isp but in use by a member.

I have also seen activity like that after playing a game on line and disconnecting..

A very few cable companies have problems w/ cable modems disconnecting... maybe your cable modem trying to disconnect messed them up (or whatever kind of modem it is)
