What is this on my firewall attack log?
These attacks on my firewall keep changing as to who they were, but the main thing stays the same, ‘windows ARP poison nuke’ and ‘mac address probably spoofed’. Please explain in "layman’s" terms. Thank you.
Oh and it’s from other people in my home that are using the same router that I am hardwired into.
So someone in my home is trying to hack into my pc? It is coming from those living here…it changes at times, but it’s always from the same individuals.
Should anyone be doing this even when they belong to the same household? And if I am the one who pays for internet, what are my options, besides disconnecting it all together?
The ARP cache is part of the Windows networking system. It keeps track of network addresses and such. A poisoning attack is an attempt to replace or corrupt that data to allow a hacker to take over your system.
The MAC address is a number that’s imbedded permanently into the memory of any piece of hardware that can access a network or the internet. Unlike an IP address, the MAC is supposed to be unique for every piece of hardware.
What the log means basically is that there’s someone trying to break into your system. It’s probably someone scanning a range of addresses, and they have a program which fakes the originating IP address and MAC address randomly to make them harder to block and harder to track down. It’s probably an automated system that’s scanning a range of IP addresses, knocking at each door and hoping to find one that’s open.

In a nutshell, what seems to be happening on your network is that one or more of the devices or users on your network have a virus or use software that either tries to:
(a) crash (nuke) or intrude a system attached to the network, or
(b) take over the identity of a device attached to the network (by means of MAC hardware address spoofing) for the purpose of intruding another, possibly remote system this device is talking to, or
(c) tries to launch or launched a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack by flooding the network and creating network congestion (thus blocking legitimate traffic on the network).
Each and every one of these possibilities is usually an act of hostility (and possibly illegal, unless performed by technicians authorized by the owner(s) of the system(s) and network(s).
