What's the source IP on the one you think is your cable modem? I don't
*think* any models generate traffic on thier own, but I can check
that...
Some @home users may also want to add these two lines somewhere
convienent where it'll get run every start (I have mine in
/etc/ipmasq/rules/I05crapfilter.def)
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -j REJECT -s 24.0.0.203 -d 0.0.0.0/0
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -j REJECT -s 24.0.94.130 -d 0.0.0.0/0
If you want to know why, host or nslookup the sources.
