  • @Showroom7561 You are referring to incoming IPs? I get around 50 to 100 per day as well. Easily blocked. My bigger concern is outgoing connections by home automation devices on my network. I have over 200 lights, switches, and sensors of various brands, most of which try to “phone home” anywhere from daily to every few seconds. They are reporting (something) to data aggregation businesses that presumably are selling. Blocking some devices from Internet access (e.g., my Leviton light switches) causes the device to fail! Yet another case of companies stealing our personal data.
