The reason I posted was to stop the OP being sidetracked into an investigation into a (D)DoS attack when it was fairly obvious it wasn't. Most peoples problems on here including this one are usually far more mundane than someone maliciously attempting to disable their connection and denial of service shouldn't even have come up.
