Thank you for reaching out to us here @user_4gai5j. Have you experienced any service issues or drops in your connection when you see those messages?

@XfinityJohnG​ I haven't experienced disturbance in the service. I was reviewing router settings and checking speedtest when i noticed the repeating messages. Thought I should understand what they represent.

Thanks for confirming. Do you have a Netgear router by chance?

Thanks for confirming. From my experience, that router log message is usually Netgear related. I would reach out to Netgear to report it, and see what steps you would need to take if any are needed. Let us know what they say.
