No. Its worth turning off the logging for those. There will be lots.

Is the router set to block WAN icmp ping requests? if so that's why, but if you play online games and prefare to host a game or server then some will not join as no ping available so they don't know how high or low it is

I doubt that updating the firmware is related. What is more likely is that your IP address changed on the 29th, either in the early hours due to network maintenance, or you disconnected and reconnected / rebooted at some point and the IP address that you now have was previously used by a Gamer.
If it's bothering you and/or continuing for too many more days, then log into the Router and click Disconnect, wait about 30 seconds and then click Connect. That should give you a new IP address (and probably a different Gateway).

made no difference
