Anyone know kung ano 'to? DDoS attempts ba? or am I just being paranoid? Di naman exposed yung public IP ko. I've also turned off UPnP. Also, upon checking yung mga IPs, puro AWS.

Based on the information you provided, it is difficult to determine with certainty whether you are experiencing DDoS attempts or if it's just a case of being paranoid. However, there are a few factors to consider:

1. AWS IPs: The fact that the IPs are mostly from Amazon Web Services (AWS) does not necessarily indicate malicious activity. AWS is a popular cloud computing platform used by many legitimate websites and services. It is common for legitimate traffic to originate from AWS.

2. Public IP exposure: Even if your public IP is not directly exposed, it is still possible for your IP to be discovered by attackers through various means. Therefore, it is important to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions.

3. Disabling UPnP: Turning off Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a good step in securing your network. UPnP can sometimes expose vulnerable services to the internet, making them potential targets for attacks.

To further investigate whether these are DDoS attempts or something else, you can take the following steps:

1. Monitor your network traffic: Use network monitoring tools to observe incoming and outgoing traffic. Look for abnormal patterns or significant increases in traffic that might indicate a DDoS attack.

2. Analyze the traffic: Examine the characteristics of the traffic, such as the volume, frequency, and types of requests. DDoS attacks typically involve a large number of requests aimed at overwhelming your network or server.

3. Check for other signs of attack: Keep an eye out for other potential signs of attack, such as unusual system behavior, increased resource usage, or service disruptions.

4. Contact your internet service provider (ISP): If you suspect a DDoS attack, reach out to your ISP for assistance. They may be able to provide additional insight or help mitigate the attack.

Remember, it is always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to security. Taking proactive steps to protect your network and seeking professional advice can help ensure the safety of your systems.
