Yay! We can play!

I’m quite familiar with it. I’m a software engineer, so I know a little bit about this stuff.

But what you mean is that many “illegal” use certain routes, which could be blocked.

You can hide your IP and fake your MAC (hello @virtual devices) but you can’t fake your IP until the endpoint (ISP-server handshake, encryption etc). So in the end all connections should be personalized and the rest of the floodgates should be blocked.

PS: Another solution would be to use account related certificates.

I’m in! thanks CCP

Its not possible to connect via VPN at the moment, only with VPN turned off. is this only temporary?

Perfect solution :slight_smile: only personalized connections is the way :slight_smile:

hmm okay

sources of DDoS-attacks never leads to people who engaged it: in example it can be security-cams server, WiFi-router, someone’s notebook, desktop or smartphone which was hacked / virused years (or couple minutes) ago with a non-harmful code aka “bot-net” waiting a remote command, but it’s not a real remote command can be tracked down - just a couple lines with instructions, “to-do list” published on anonymously registered web-page with a senseless-named domain (indeed it’s name is a math-procedure-generated string depending on timestamp when it be read by millions infected computers and devises)
moreover on this days an army of existing DDoS-devices filled with a new division of IoT

Then lock it all down. But you’re right, based on your first statement, it won’t find the criminal, but it will at least mitigate the impact.

What is currently not happening is that the owners of these connections would have to be notified (via ISP) that the suspicious activity is occurring. In fact, all those who have such infected devices should be notified and warned.

You can’t. You have no control over them.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

still having an issue with chats not updating, getting disconnected, getting reconnected and dont compare with player names in overview…

I can not, but ISP can.

I can not login.

Char windows is loading and i see the Authenticating screen for more than 15 minutes now …

Can login, but lucky to get 30 s of inputs before a disconnect. was more likely to disconnect almost immediately after login.

yeah, thanks TAPI. Wonder where they anchored a keepstar when they DDOS’d

it’s almost impossible too - from the ISP’s side each single unit of DDoS-attack does nothing harmful or even strange - it just sends some valid requests to some IP-address in the internet - ordinary work of ordinary network device, but when their numbers grown to millions devices (in different network segments of different ISPs in different countries) the target of that ordinary requests will sink in Niagara with a seconds - it’s a Distributed Deny of Service attack

Great Work …Again …:-1:

Yeah I can’t log-in ether. Connection failed message. Kicked the hamster and everything, no luck.

I’m connected to the game but the chat server is a mess.
