To be honest it could easily be someone just scanning massive IP ranges to see what they can find.

 

I used to do it to find web servers. You put in a range and scan port 80,8080 found so weird blogs that way lol

I (on the worst degree ever of unfortunately) am forced to share my network with my brother. I only use it for business; gaming and VoD streaming. Gaming being the main.
Now my brother - is showing these logs to the person who owns and is paying for the network - and its making them consider to remove my access... Id like to know what it is - how to get rid of it and why it is only doing it to my local-ip and not his.

 

He is telling them "IDS" is standing for "Intrusion Detection System" that is scanning only my computers ports and making it sound catastrophic.

Please view the router log below and tell me what you think. Thanks - IP's have been blurred for security purposes (But be assured the target IP after all "IDS" reports is my PC's private IP).

Is your brother being a jerk on purpose? Because dick move if so

Its just who he is. I've given up on trying to fix him as the problem so i might just as well as isolate him from the other issue here. Pretty much just want to find out why his PC isnt showing up under that IDS thing and why mine is

In the process of doing so but moneys always a problem. Busy working (literally and figuratively) on it and have it as my main option. But again for most likely the following few months im still stuck with him and i'd like to put his IP on this IDS thing for a change so it can make him look catastrophic and not me

I was thinking that as well, but are people really that mean to eachother? like especially family if he is trying to deny him access

port scanning is (mostly) harmless I'm not sure there is any law against it.

I did overhear him say to someone else that its someone thats pinging my IP or scanning my IP's ports

To me it looks like it's getting pissed over you opening a new port on your system - this is normal. 

 

what router are you using?

idk

Technicolor TG589VN v3 - Very old and literally makes screetching noises; But i havnt done any port forwarding from my PC to the router yet - but if im not mistaken i cant be the only one opening ports on my system - because then his system would also show up on the logs

Thanks for the help guys. I guess i'll just look the other way and ignore him next time he brings it up. 
As you can see from this thread - im a pre-noob when it comes to networking. What would you say would be the best way or most efficient way for me to learn or improve on my networking knowledge? Im currently working on my CompTIA A+ then on to my Network+ and the dream is to get my CCNA One day x)

Your router detected the scan, as it should, and made an alarm. Just keep an eye on the logs for any other unusual logs.

This isn't an attack. It's just a port scan, and it's harmless, unless you're actually running some vulnerable devices.

 

Snort protects against port scans.

If you're too broke for snort, just deny all traffic from the IP inside the router (assuming it has a blacklist).
