Administrators Marcos 5,458 Posted March 18, 2018 Administrators Posted March 18, 2018 I assume it's a trusted device which scans remote ports for whatever reason. If that's the case, select "Do not notify" and click Allow.
johnhatt 0 Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 I got the same issue. I contact eset customer service and my problem is solved within hour.
itman 1,804 Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 Prior Huawei routers and modems have been riddled with vulnerabilities: http://www.securitynewspaper.com/2015/12/03/critical-vulnerabilities-3g4g-modems/ . I would advise doing a bit of research on your particular model and ensure it does not have any known security issues and if so, are patches available from the manufacturer.

Thao Nguyen 1 Posted March 19, 2018 Author Posted March 19, 2018 I must do as how? I use USB 3G Huawei 3531

Appears this is a Wi-Fi modem that you are connecting to the Internet with. Are you using a public Wi-Fi hotspot connection are you connecting to an ISP?
Thao Nguyen 1 Posted March 21, 2018 Author Posted March 21, 2018 I no using a public Wi-Fi hotspot connection.

Basically, your device is a modem; not a router. As such, I assume it offers none of the security protections a router would have; statefull firewall, NAT, port scanning protection, etc.. Getting back to your original issue, it appears IP address 192.168.8.100 is the Huawei E3531 modem. It really shouldn't be performing port scanning activities to allow normal Internet inbound and outbound network communication. It is fair to assume this scanning is being initiated externally to try to gain access to your PC through an open inbound port. The only permanent solution I know of would be to use a router/modem combination with the above mentioned features. Or connect the Huawei E3531 modem to a router and set the Huawei to pass through all traffic to the router. Then connect the router to your PC. Edited March 21, 2018 by itman

Administrators Marcos 5,458 Posted March 22, 2018 Administrators Posted March 22, 2018 Please do not post unrelated stuff here. You originally asked about a port scan attack. Regarding configuration of your router, ask your ISP if you are having whatever issues please.
Thao Nguyen 1 Posted March 22, 2018 Author Posted March 22, 2018 I just want ask set up security for my network for the my network be more secure
itman 1,804 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I didn't notice a prior posting where a user contacted Eset customer support and they resolved the port scanning issue. I advise you do that. However, you will first have to purchase an Eset license.
itman 1,804 Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 16 hours ago, Markp said: Select do not notify and then select allow. When you do so in this situation, you are just "hiding" the alert from Eset that port scanning is occurring on the modem. Your best protection is to use a router with a firewall that has stateful inspection which will block any port scanning attempts to find an open inbound port on the WAN side of the router.
