RE: getting DDoSed - Vultra - 07-06-2018
I would look into getting a VPN to block the ddos attack.

Using a VPN doesn't block a DDoS if they already have my IP.

I haven't sifted through each and every post, but have you performed a factory reset on your router? Also, If your router has a built-In firewall, you can define security rules and filter Incoming traffic to block the attack.
If you're running a dynamic IP, It's strange that multiple reboots didn't assign a new one.

So, could it work if you could get a dynamic IP then get a VPN. By the time you have that done and setup. They won't know that you're under a VPN?

Get NordVPN. They have anti-ddos VPNS. Maybe that would work

Start from the beginning, how do you know that you are being DDosed? First of all, they'd need a reason to DDos you. Then how do you know (apart from a slow internet connection) that you are being DDosed? It's rather rare that home networks are being targetted, and if your ISP doesn't notice it it's even more weird.
Also if your ISP doesn't know what a (D)Dos attack is, go to another ISP because then they are just fucking retards. Pretty much every 12 year old nowadays nows what it is

Mr. 0pQ coming in saving the day!
I would also like to know, how you know that you're being Ddossed?
RE: getting DDoSed - Bish0pQ - 07-06-2018
@FunkyG Not really saving the day, but defintly trying to help! The only way to know for sure (I think), I'm not a networking specialist but a programmer, is to scan incoming traffic with Wireshark.
Also keep in mind that the router (in 99% of the cases) also keeps a log file. It could be disabled by default, but usually it isn't. If OP posted that information here it could be of great assistence too.
@OP, if you post shit like that don't forget to remove/black-out personal information that you don't want SL members to see.

That is true, thanks for helping though. And yes don't forget to black our sensitive information!

This.
The first port of call when a DDoS attack Is experienced, Is to cut off all network activity and call your ISP. They should be well aware of how to handle It and from an Incident response standpoint, provide corrective measures to help fend off future attacks.
