DoS attacks

I wonder if anyone else is experiencing this.
I have set my Netgear router to email me about DoS attacks & Port Scans. Up to a few weeks back I might get four or five a week. Recently I’ve had many, many more, up to twenty a day, with the Router settings unchanged. Like:

TCP Packet - Source: xx.xx.xx.xxx.xxxxx Destination: xx.xx.xx.xxx.xxxxx - [DOS]

The source varies, but many seem to originate from China.
Anyone else had a huge increase? I’m not worried (should I be?) as the router is doing its job. But I’m puzzled.
