Hey all,

I have been gettin random packet loss due to "Twinge attacks" showing up in my router's log file :

TWINGE ATTACK Detect Packet Dropped
(As you can see, they are all ~40-43 seconds apart -.- On a 20 ping report to google.com I lost 55% of the packets, but just before I pinged comcast.com and lost 0... )

This is causing slower net speeds, and disconnects from certain games / programs. Any ideas? I already have my WAN ping-back disabled... the router came with it ON as a factory default so it was on for a while if that helps. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks

See this wikipedia explaination :

Shouldn't have anything to do with lower net speed.
