    Warning: Someone using DOS attacks

    I was the victim of some one using a DOS attack this morning at this time i do not have an ID on who did it hopefully i will soon just waiting on my ISP report. A DOS attack basically makes it so your current IP Address can not connect to the internet through your Xbox. If you get kicked off Xbox live and cannot reconnect reboot your router or modem by unpluging it for 5-10 mins and it will automatically give you a new IP address. For more info here is a link to Xbox support page http://http://support.xbox.com/en-US...2dc24af2014edd

    Xbox has gone down like 10-12 times today and it was happening from like 2 pm - 5 pm... So it might not be a DOS attack... And also sorting IP Address on these servers are hard due to it posts all IP from every one in the server no matter where they are. So i don't believe it was a DOS attack.
