    So I was looking through my router's logs and I noticed a lot of lines that look like this:

    [DoS Attack: ACK Scan] from source: 208.111.168.6, port 80, Sunday, May 20,2012 20:12:29

    Is this something to be concerned about?

    No! Perhaps this is related to your ISP. It is an address for Limelight Networks. http://www.limelight.com/company/
