Hello@timski,

Welcome to our community.

 

As far as I know, IoT Protection in the security+ package of the HomeShield service supports UDP flood defense. For more details about HomeShield, please refer to HomeShield Overview.

Hi,

 

Within the router's web management interface there should be a "Search" button at the top of the webpage. Try searching for single words, like "UDP", "flood", "attack" and "defense". If the search doesn't yield what you are looking for, then it most likely doesn't exist.

 

Anyway, I believe on the recent Archer models the user cannot customize the built-in threat protections.

 

Do you have a situation where the router is blocking something that you deem to be legitimate traffic?
