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.

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 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.
