Title: Re: [AFMUG] akamai contact
Steve,

OK just for shits and giggles I typed in the bad ip address
https://72.246.60.96 and got this from my browser

"Websites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for 72.246.60.96. The certificate is only valid for the following names: www.downloads.netgear.com, updates1.netgear.com, http.fw.updates1.netgear.com, arloupdates.netgear.com, updates.netgear.com, acupdatesdl2.netgear.com, acdownload.netgear.com, updates.arlo.com, kb1.netgear.com, acupdatesdl.netgear.com"

So, I'm going with my first guess that the netgear router is screwed.

TCP/443.   I have blocked all packets leaving his system going to that
IP  address.   That  has  stopped  the  download  of  course,  but  it is
continuously requesting data.  We powered off all devices and it still
continued.  Of course powering off router killed the traffic.

What  are  the chances that it is the Netgear router?  It is a Netgear
(R7000P-100NAS)  Nighthawk AC2300 router.  The usage spike started the
day  he installed the router.  Could it be in some type of FW download
loop?
