Fenderman,
I have a TP-Link router that has the following settings, which I think accomplish the same thing as DoS protection:
Enable ICMP-FLOOD Attack Filtering
ICMP-FLOOD Packets Threshold (5 ~ 3600): Packets/s
Enable UDP-FLOOD Filtering
UDP-FLOOD Packets Threshold (5 ~ 3600): Packets/s
Enable TCP-SYN-FLOOD Attack Filtering
TCP-SYN-FLOOD Packets Threshold (5 ~ 3600): Packets/s
They are all currently enabled. To accomplish what you are talking about, do I disable one or all of them or can I set the packet number high and accomplish the same thing, or am I completely off base here since my knowledge of routers is minimal?
