The DDOS situation (It's getting rediculous)

[Tadeoka]

Pretty much this. A DDoS attack works by throwing A LOT of useless data at a server in order to crash it, it will almost never be aimed at a single person as they're even pretty rare against big companies. and even then DDoS attacks are basically impossible to defend against due to the nature of how they work. But bottom line is; sorry OP that's not a DDoS attack.

I don't disagree this is what some people consider normal, and I've read a multitude of threads about this very situation. That being said, a normal two hour block of activity WITHOUT being connected to FF14 only resulted in 15 of these, not one ever 2-3 secs. I've never had this amount of traffic on my router before and it started around the same time SB launched. I'll need a little more convincing that this normal.
