re: Security concerns on superhub
 

firewall, and ip flood should be disabled the rest shouldn't be a problem

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

i second that, although i would knock multicast off the list as well

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

If worried you can go to Content Filtering and then logs and have the Superhub email you if anyone attempts a DOS attack on your network.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

But...what is the SMTP Server Name ???

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

As in smtp.blueyonder.co.uk.

I knew that you were going to ask that very question.:D

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

LOL

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I done it, thanks.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Do not expect any alerts because you do not really want that to happen.:)

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

lets be honest its not even going to happen, no one will dos his router lol

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

It is on the router so if he is worried about security then enter your details but it is extremely unlikely that you will ever get a warning from it.;)

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I had 21 times dos attack today! It ****ed me off. I want to go back to old modem VMDG300

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Maybe you should lay off the torrents.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I never use torrents! If it happen again dos attack, that's it, I go back to VMDG300 and use ethernet cable instead as wireless is very easy access from someone!

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

you dont have a clue lol

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

They will probably never reactivate the VMNG300 as they want us on Superhubs and that is the same for the collection of modems you have they all need taking to the tip.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I do have a clue! I always use WPA2 security enable with very long lower, upper, letter, number on the security password.

I will ring up and explain of the dos attack and ask tech guy to come out and check who been using my wi-fi

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

You dont need any security on the superhubs wireless network.























It only has a 2 foot range :devsmoke:

John.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Our engineers do not deal with wifi issues the security is down to you and you sound like you have a good password.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Yes it MUST use a wi fi security WPA2 enabled no matter if it only in this house.

yes my password is very strong!!! my best mate havent got any clue as my password is no where of birthday, date of birth, the past memory. Only in my brain !

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I suggest you research up what a dos attack is.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Yeah your password seems very strong! your wpa2 encryption is also great! i don't like the sound of these DOS attacks, I suggest you get an engineer out asap! Have you been getting Pinged of deathed as well? or de-fragmented on the network??

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Using ASUS USB N10 Wireless USB Adaptor on my pc and good result here:

https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/50.png

It connection speed of 150.0Mbps with excellent signal quality with full 5 green lights on

---------- Post added at 23:02 ---------- Previous post was at 23:01 ----------

Strange the dos attack had stopped when I reboot the superhub !

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Doesn't it get very boring switching your packages all the time, or equipment?
I've never seen someone switch so many things in a short space of time!

---------- Post added at 23:03 ---------- Previous post was at 23:03 ----------

Connection speed of 150.0Mbps :confused:
Edit: My bad, I realised that the speed quoted is the adapter speed and not the broadband!

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I only switch package once on 1st february and the superhub still with me for a months while.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Thats great! but are you getting pinged of deathed or network de-fragmented???

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Yeah de-fragmentation sounds terrible when it's in DOS.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I mean this:

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Oh it is.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Apologies, I initially had thought your BB speed, but then realised a few moments later :)

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Explain to me how to work out this ?

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Thats also great, ur on the road to a 100% secure network! but are you being pinged of deathed or having any network de-fragmentation?? ohh or any packets lost during a test run under your modem to your Ethernet cable?

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

[img]Download Failed (1)[/img] Ping quite high isn't it ?

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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

This is what I achieved:
http://www.pingtest.net/result/34484042.png

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

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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.

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

:LOL:

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Even better! im so glad they've stoped, one day i got about 500! couldnt even start my router up! now that were passed that theres only one more thing we need to know! are you being ping of deathed or having any network de-fragmentation??

thanks,

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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

re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I never give out my ip address or mac address to anyone elses!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

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

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Only if there's a horde of DDoS Elite's in the area that it would be beneficial to use a Plasma shield. Otherwise a bubble shield should be good enough for a few grunts!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

If you see anyone with a Danasoft sign in their post it will tell you your ip, your operating system and even your browser.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I have it addblocked so no idea if it is even working which is why I removed mine above.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Multiphase plasma, surely?

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Only URL had appeared in your post so I guess it was removed.
Added it in a reply though, just for TC to see it ;)

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Well I didn't want to get too technical.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Since telford cable hasnt replied in a while i guess he was being ping of deathed and de-fragmented network, poor guy!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

LOL

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

:D

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Another comedy thread from Telford cable :tu:

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Perhaps his ceiling fan has Killed him?

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

haha funny thread.

in short dont worry about security as long as you dont have DMZ pointing to your pc NAT will be protecting you for inbound traffic. I have both firewall and flood protection disabled on the superhub.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Darn those ceiling fans!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I am still here :)

So far, no dos attack and I will try to hide my ip address! To stop them looking up mine!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

You cannot hide your ip as you require it to connect.

Do not overcomplicate matters as it makes you paranoid about internet security.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

It show incorrect of my area, browser and operating system and show USA ip address :)

It work as I had disabled it and stop them looking up my pc details.

---------- Post added at 15:28 ---------- Previous post was at 15:27 ----------

Yes I can do it. I can hide my ip address. It easy and simple!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

You still have to transmit one though such as your blag USA one and that would prevent you from using the likes of the BBC iplayer and many other UK based sites.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if many people *did* want to DoS him.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Thank God!! thought you got ping of deathed or network de-fragmentation!!

do you have any signs of a ip address GGHG mod on ur modem as i had a GGHG mod and people could steal my passwords for this forum!!

thanks,

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

I staying away from this forum until 1st April 2011, to rest my mind!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Won't save you from being de-fragmented though.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Indeed it wont! silly silly man he is!

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

What a shame.

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Early April Fool's joke?

Re: Security concerns on superhub
 

Whats up with wanting to be secure, do you leave your doors open at night??, i dont, and i use bolts as well as deadlocks, look at me wanting to feel all secure

as for thinking Nat is good enough lol, maybe for first time hackers

firewalls and spi make it tuffer to crack, there not there to make you feel good, there there for a reason
