Need Help Understanding Router 'Security Log' Results

So we have a wireless network set up in our dorm room, using a Belkin F5D7230-4 router (I think), to just provide the room with wireless, nothing advanced. We have the router set up with it's latest firmware and 128bit WEP enabled with the SSID being broadcast (it makes it easier for us) using channel 11. We haven't had any problems really, but I was examining some of the router settings earlier this evening and I looked in on the security log and saw something that seemed a bit strange to me.

And I can't say how long this has been going on, but at the very least for about 20 minutes prior to this post. Is this something I should be concerned about, and if so what kind of steps can I take to prevent it? I can't really say if it's caused any problems, but I don't think so, yet. Thanks in advance.
 
This has nothing to do with Wireless.

Do not waste your time, it is a typical Internet noise at the WAN Port and there is Nothing that you can do about it.

This is one of the reasons to why you have a Router and it is taking care of business blocking this junk
