From Google: In computing, a denial-of-service (DoS) or distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an attempt to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users. Certain denial-of-service attacks bombard the firewall with thousands of fake connection packets in an attempt to overwhelm it by filling its connection state memory.Quote:

Here's what's actually happening.

11-19-2014, 04:09 PMVesparThis doesnt mean you are unaffected, nor does it mean that this is or isnt a hacker attempt to overload the server. I'm not saying it is one way or the other but it certainly appears fishy.Quote:

I never 90k during actual primetime and rarely ever 90k unless it is something seriously wrong with the SE servers.Quote:

here's what my hops are, just so you know I don't have to go through any AT&T stuff, meaning it's a problem with Level 3. Anything at 17 hops or more is timing out because of firewalls that disallow pinging:
