getting kicked offline

[Mod Removed] are booting me offline. They do it all day. If this isn't taking care of I'm done with xbox. Microsoft. All of it.

:)

 

Getting kicked offline!!??

Not using their own console they can't. The attack is done with a PC. There is no issue with the security of Xbox Live as the attack doesn't come through Live.

The reason you can't is because that person may come here and dispute that and/or say that you did this and vice versa. Phone support doesn't know how these forums work.

Filing a complaint is the ONLY way to report someone of wrongdoing.

 

Hey there Mango! Sorry to hear that you feel that way about Microsoft. Please file a complaint, mute, block, and submit a bad player review about the users involved. In order to stop getting DDoS attacked, please get in touch with your ISP and inform
them that you need your IP address changed.

Also, for future reference, please don't name and shame on the forums. Please review the Xbox Forum Guidelines for more information on the name and shame rule.

 

I just wanted to let you know that it is not Microsoft's fault that you are getting DDoS'ed. A player that you met and/or communicated with scraped your IP and they are doing it themselves. Just do what iNb4 Ownage suggested and you will be just fine.

 

An official guide to resolve the attack: FAQs About DoS and DDoS Attacks on Xbox 360

Verbatim: "If you're currently experiencing a DoS or DDoS attack, try resetting your Internet router (that is, your DSL or cable modem), which may resolve the DoS or DDoS attack. A proper reset involves removing the power source for 5 to 10 minutes.
This will increase the likelihood that you will get a new IP address that the attacker will not have access to."

The nature of contemporary technology is the reason you are being DDoSed; Microsoft is only a pioneer of this age, and so to trod the blame of Microsoft for the nature of the TCP/IP stack is just absurd. To prevent your LAN from being knocked on again, I
would suggest ceasing any potentially invoking behavior (not that you necessarily act like such) and if your capable, configuring your Xbox 360 to route through a filter --such as a VPN-- to prevent your actual I.P. Address from being visible to those who
DNS Poison. To cease your LAN from being attacked, you can either ring your Internet Service Provider and request that they change your router's I.P. Address if it's Static, or unplug your router for approximately ten minutes or so in order to be assigned
a new I.P. Address if it's Dynamic. The key to any successful DoS or DDoS attack is the proper I.P. Address, and so the solution can be simple if you can overcome the frustration of inconsistent Internet access (it happens to the best of us).

As affirmation, a mere DoS or DDoS attack is not technically "hacking" in terms of your Microsoft account(s), and so none of your credentials should be at risk whenever you're taken offline. The attacks are by virtue of networking, and ultimately uncontrollable
from Microsoft's stance. You, as a customer, are paying to use their service; in return, if the functions you need in order to use their service or incapacitated through reason of flooding packets to your routing device, it isn't actually their fault. Nor
is it your ISP's fault... entirely. Many ISPs purport to have ingrained firewalls in their routers/modems, though most of those claims from my experience are either false, or trifle, because they do not seem to substantially assist in defense of DoS/DDoS attacks.
