Network, computer sending weird packets.

Hello. We've been having issues here at home with our network for some time. We've tried many different routers, and now we're tierd of it and decided to get to the bottom of the issue.

Now, after looking in the logs, we found out that there is a computer that's sending around all kinds of different packets etc, the latest being netBIOS'. I think this is why the router randomly shuts all of us out of the network, these netBIOS' get sent around nearly all the time, sometimes with up to 3 in 1 second. Now, after just having a quick look at the problem, what we can make of the logs, it's a mac computer sending out all these packets and whatnot. Is this not weird? The person using this mac is careful about what he downloads, so to get spyware/maleware/whatever like this is VERY unlikely.

Not sure how all the other people on the network uses their computer, but I know that more than one of them are careless and will download pretty much anything.

Anyone had the same kind of issue? Can someone help? I'd prefer if we don't have to reformat most computers, but if we have to we'll do it.

I can post some screenshots of the logs, if anyone wants a better idea of what I mean.
 
Ohh, thanks a lot! I will try this soon! The mac actually doesn't have a name on the routers client list...

Another thing, while I'm at it. I see in the log of the router now, things like this "Router reply ICMP packet: ICMP(type:4, code:0)", the router allows this access. I also get "Unsupported/out-of-order ICMP: ICMP(type:3, code:3)", the router blocks this. Anyone that can shed some light onto this?
 
Can you post these logs? OS X is very DNS dependent and can do some weird things, however netBIOS is an older technology. What else is on the network, what is running DNS?
 
Hmm... From my very limited knowledge of networking and such, nothing is running DNS. We have maybe 2 websites, but both of them are on a paid hoster. I don't know really how to check it though, as I said, I'm not very good with this.

Here is the log. I know it doesn't look good, because it's a copy-paste. Johan-Dator is my computer, and the one without any name is probably the mac. Though this time there are only NetBIOS packets in the log, it's because the router restarted not to long ago. I can post another bit of log when I start to get other packets.

The first IP number is the source, the second is the destination, the last piece of text is just a note.

Those are all coming from with in your network. All 192.x.x.x are private IPs and would not ever come from the outside world. Is your router running DNS? DNS does not just do with websites, and I assume that IP 192.168.137.1 is your router?

It is probably trying to push netBIOS settings to the mac client over the port it uses and by default the ipfw is blocking that port.

What machine is 192.168.1.35? Is it some kind of Windows server?
 
We don't have any kind of server on the network. All computers on our network has a computer name when you look at the client list, except for the mac, there it's just an IP number and a MAC adress.

I'll look into it, since the router changes the IP of the clients when we connect.

I know that those all come from within the network, but from time to time we do have packets that have both source and destination as an outside IP.
 
Okay, so after looking around and comparing the mac adresses, yes, the 192.168.1.35 is the mac. The 192.168.137.1, I think that's my xbox. And, I just found out it has something with DNS on it, the xbox's primary DNS server is at 192.168.137.1. Ahh, I do feel a bit stupid now.

But still, that doesn't explain this I found in the log now.

EDIT: Oh, and I think that 192.168.1.1 is the router. That is the IP number I enter into my browser to access the router anyway. And, the second IP is the destination of the packet, so it'd still be a computer trying to send to the router, and not the other way around, I think.

Something from Amsterdam is hitting your router, or is that log from your Mac? Are you running NAT on your router?

Perhaps Archangel is hacking you?
 
Enable Network Address Translation, that box is checked, other than that, no other settings are entered, I don't know if it's on by default or if I have turned it on in my desperate attempts to fix the router by myself, though I don't think I have turned it on myself.

That log is from my router, both the source and the destination of the packet is from outside the network.

From looking at http://tools.whois.net/whoisbyip/, the destination is something that belongs to TeliaSonera AB Networks in Amsterdam, TeliaSonera is my ISP.

And the source, I have no idea, it didn't make any sense to me on that site.

EDIT: Could it be any use to call my ISP and talk to them? Especially since the destination of these packets are to a TeliaSonera server or something in Amsterdam. I bought my router from them too, when my D-link was failing, so they should be able to give support for the router too. What do you think?

I would turn on NAT, by default it won't allow remote hosts to connect, in fact always keep it on. That should stop those NetBIOS requests from coming in. However, the strange part is that they are coming from your network?? I am wondering, do you have any older windows machines on the network? NetBIOS really is not used anymore as everything is over TCP/IP
 
I do have some XP machines, that are pretty old, but they still have XP. That's about the oldest on the network. If it's not the mac, then I don't really know.
 
NAT is on by the way, and I still get weird packets. Might there be some kind of setting within NAT that I have to fiddle with?
