Reading through my router logs I'm noticing I keep getting DoS(LAND) attacks, usually twice sometimes more than 3 times a day. Anybody know how to prevent this?

The IP address is my router's WAN address, and I starred out the last octet.
They appear to happen at times of day both when people are home using the network and when people are not using the network.
I run a NetGear R7000 with CAT6 from the ONT, most devices are wired, but the wireless is protected with WPA2, and I do not broadcast my SSID's, I use access control for both wired and wireless.
Devices on my network include:
XBOX 360's
AppleTV's
OSX Mavericks
Windows 8.1
iPhones
Logitech HarmonyLink Remote Nodes
and a Hard-wired HP JetDirect TCP/IP Printer
Any help or knowledge would be much welcomed as I cannot wrap my head around how to prevent this, :/
