Smurf attack is a Broadcast ping attack…
and the ping of death attack is a over sized ping packet…which no one uses anymore.

Not near you, someone was just probably going through all the IPs and just running attacks on them

The smurf attack probbley wasnt anything
Most networks routers are setup up to drop ICMP broadcasts from outside sources…So it may have just been from a computer inside your ISPs network.
The ping of death is just a over sized ping packet…Which may have been some sort of OS detection scanner or something lame.
