FW.IPv6 INPUT drop , 7345 Attempts,
Hi! I was just reaching out because I have been an Xfinity customer for four years now and I've never really had problems with my Internet. Recently, I started having problems with my Internet and it keeps showing firewall blocked, and then it shows dish next to it. 7345 attempts have been blocked. There are also a few other firewall blocks and my Internet has been spotty. I am having a technician stop out Wednesday. Having the Internet connection drop has been annoying, but that's not my biggest concern. I am very adamant on my security because I work from home at my office and used advance security as well. I just want to know that this is not a security threat. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

It's not a security issue. It's just random ever-present background internet noise. Port scanning by bad actors happens all the time. Those messages indicate that the firewall is doing its job, blocking / dropping the attempts. There's nothing to "address" or "resolve".
