router receiving unwanted packages

My router is continuously receiving tcp packets from numerous sources, seems like some kind of nasty.
Windows defender and avg free say nothing wrong. I've restored to an earlier date, any ideas, thanks in advance.
The line below is taken from my router log there are thousands of then with different sources.

What else do you expect it to do?

What was the reason for the restore?

It could be anything. It looks like the router has flagged it as a Denial Of Service attack and would have rejected the packet.
 
So do I just wait for the denial of service attack to stop?

Your router will be hit with hundreds/thousands of packets, some normal background traffic, some in response to an outgoing request and some will be dodgy. If it's not getting past the router and into your system, then it's doing it's job.
