[URGENT] Getting DDoSed

[CrazyLemurs]

You really don't have a clue do you?

What is that supposed to mean?

[xxMATTGxx]

Saying that technology needs to slow down due to DDOsing lol

[sex]

When ever did I do that LMFAO?
I swear technology needs to slow the **** down so we can sort out DDoSing etc.

You did it like 2 weeks ago, i was talking with him while he was doing it
i remember it something like "ahh my internet" *gone from helpdesk"

Is Hardcore banned now? I request he is in that eventuality

It's possibly that he got your IP using a Skype resolver.
To stop the attack you can do either:
1. Change your IP using CMD or just unplugging your router for 8 minutes then plugging it back in.
2. Connect to a Proxy/VPN.
3. Call your ISP asking for help.

O yeah and, block the person on skype.

This entire thread is full of fail.

You're not being DDoS'd (or DoS'd in this case). Contact Virgin about your internet connection dropping out if it's happening over your entire house and move on in life.

And the guy above, @Beep...; none of this is going to help.

IPs are inherently public, everywhere you go you leave your IP address behind.

Spot on, just sounds like he's spamming so much traffic onto your IP address, the router can't cope and drops the connection? (Thinking out loud here haha)

Don't give out your Skype username willy nilly is the moral of the story here though.

That's what a DoS attack is, and this isn't one. More likely just a coincidence on the timing.

True that, with the floods and everything :/ There was a big deal on engineers coming on-site in Autumn because of all the floods and engineers going up north D:
