How do I get help to stop DDOS attacks against my xbox and account

Cuddle Mushroom · Sep 13, 2023

My console is being targeted by Rainbow six siege players who are continously monitoring my xbox ip address and as soon as they see that I'm playing Siege they send packets to my address and kick me off siege through what is known as a Denial of Service attack. I really need this case to be elevated to the highest possible person who can see this. I play Siege for a living and am one of the top 1% on xbox and I now cant play siege on my xbox and xbox doesn't offer any possible solutions like being able to change my ip or having a dedicated Microsoft vpn service on the xbox both of which would help with this problem. I have also reached out to Ubisoft.

EDIT Update: I spoke with microsoft support and that was no help. It basically amounted to me explaining to support what a Denial of Service attack is because they don't even understand the words in the case I opened with them. Not exactly great support.

I'm sorry this has happened to you. In regards to your IP address, only your internet service provider can change this. You will need to contact your provider in regards to Denial of service attacks. They can investigate and give your home internet a new IP.

To help keep you safe online, please reading the following guide: DoS and DDoS attacks on Xbox

What do expect xbox to do against ddos attacks? Ddos attacks are done via your broadband/internet,they are not done through xbox live so are down to your isp to resolve.https://support.xbox.com/help/Hardware-Network/connect-network/dos-attacks-faq

Threatening to ddos someone via xbox live is a violation of the rules so report anyone doing that.

DDOS attacks are against the modem and are not something either Xbox Live or PlayStation Network can stop.

This page will explain how to restore service after an attack. If such an attack occurs, users are advised to contact their Internet Service Provider (ISP), which has the tools and the means to trace the attack and deal with the offending party.

you will need to tell your local authority as it is a criminal offence to ddos someone.

Actually, I'd avoid law enforcement at this step- typically Denial of Service attacks are resolved relatively quickly (5-10 minutes with a system refresh) and then we would advocate reaching out to your ISP.

What should I do if I think I've been attacked?

If you think that your Xbox console or computer has experienced a DoS or DDoS attack, do the following:

Reset your Internet router.
Contact your ISP.
If you are certain of the identity of the DoS or DDoS attacker:
- Contact the attacker’s ISP.
- File a complaint against the player with Xbox Live. Select the "tampering" category on the complaint form.
Avoid that individual on Xbox Live in the future.

What can I do to stop the attack?

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 complete reset requires turning off the power 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.

If you still experience the DoS or DDoS attack, contact your ISP.

How can I find out who attacked me?

ddos attack lol????

do you even know what DDOS is?

first of all if it was a DDOS attack then you should be complaining at your ISP since your service of internet was denied

Microsoft cant do anything about that neither can Xbox support...

go to your ISP file a complaint and make sure they start a investigation

xbox cant do anything against DDOS attack neither do u have any proof of this so called DDOS attack
