Not really.
Xbox is running fine in matchmaking, so no problems.

This is what I achieved:

With my old router, I had pings of 100, and major packet loss (70%)
Then it finally broke.

That's ok then. It seem the dos attack had stopped since, so far, no more dos attack as I don't know why it happen before! Strange.

Why would anyone attack you?
Unless you have given out your IP address, or used a service that exposes it to a third-party?

Wouldn't a clean catheter be required when undertaking that test?

You give out your IP address every time you communicate to the internet.....

ahh yes silly me! sorry! but wait if he has a GHS mod on his GTT then he wont need a clean catheter, but only a simple DDFSD mod, we only need to know if he is being ping of deathed or has a de-fragmented network!

Even Hugh will be able to see your IP address - just to scare you a bit ;)
He can even send in CSI if you were to kill someone on Call of Duty...oh wait ;)

You need a bubble shield around the SuperHub too. Just for extra protection.

Are you sure a bubble shield would hold up? I would personally recommend a Plasma shield but that's just me.
