| Am I being DDoS'ed? |

| Kyuande:
Are you sure the packet count resets? Also if you are being DDoS'd it is actually more obvious than you think. Examples: Internet is flickering out of nowhere Takes longer to connect to a simple webpage Ping is awfully high and spikes whenever I have experienced ALL of these when someone was trying to take down my server, which is why I get a VPS from now on to host. |

(such as pissing someone off) * 3. is the supposed attack happening to anyone else or just me? (think back to the bl server ddoser, they targeted anyone who was hosting blockland, not individuals) * 4. does resetting the router or changing the ip fix the problem temporarily or permanently? * 4.5. if it's still happening, could it just be a fault with the connection or router? i also wanna add; a ddos attack on an individual would rarely last over 10 hours because that's a lotta time, money, and effort. --- End quote --- 1. Yes, it is on my Discord and the KSP megathread so people can join my server 2. I have pissed quite a few people off recently, don't think they would ddos tho 3. It happened to just me, 4. Havent tried yet And for your ninja edit it only lasted a good 10 minutes I wasnt trying to say I was being DDos'ed btw, just asking if these could be signs --- Quote from: Kyuande on January 19, 2018, 02:58:30 PM ---Are you sure the packet count resets?

I couldn't connect to google, my laptop went down 3 times for no reason, and Battlefield 4 was lagging a stuff ton (more than it normally does for me) |

Anyways, if you actually want to see how fast data is being transfered to your router (since "packets" is ambiguous because you aren't told the average bytes per packet), you need to find if there's a "bytes received" area that you can view. You copy the number, wait a set amount of time (like an hour), then you copy the new number, and subtract the two to get an average number of bytes received per hour. You can then compare this number to the internet speed you can get. |

@Darth, as my post above, those are the usual signs. If anything the person sending info to you is very small to affect your traffic. Your computer turning off isnt a sign, just something funky. Who is your ISP? Have you tried anything different? Resetting the router to factory? |

I will release the router later tonight while everyone is sleeping and then try and see what is going on Also, just checked the info, I appear to have received an extra 40 million packets overnight, no TV or anything on |
