Anyone else down?

I know that, but all of a sudden there are an influx here and now you are being targeted. Either a huge coincidence....

Based on what we think is the origination of the network traffic, we're definitely being targeted and I think everyone on this forum would connect the dots very quickly if I mentioned a certain city. I just can't get into specifics here.

They can't really be that stupid if that is what you are inferring....

Now my curiosity is really aroused. Are we referring to a competitor?

Not being as technical as some, I have heard of a BYOD loop before but don't really know too much about it.

I'm as technical (or lacking those skills) as you. Someone care to elaborate?

Sounds like a denial of service attack to me.

Someone with nothing better to do is sitting in a irc chat room with 1000's of bots typing commands like !pingfast (insert one of voipo's many ips here)

I have been in several bot net channels. Used to run a large irc network. Had more than one guys bot net put out of commission permanently. You really should not be able to tell where its originating because they would just be infected pc's. Unless they are morons using dos software on their own pc's (most are smarter than that).

Wish they would really crack down on that stuff. The FBI seems to only focus on the people who profit from it. Good luck fighting them off.

I don't know if this mess is still going on or not.
But I can't stay registered at all.

If I reboot my router, then re-apply power to the PAP2, both lines register.

On the first re-registration (260 secs?) both fail - lights out - vPanel empty.

I'm going to submit a ticket - but I can't reboot or do anything until tomorrow night - because I don't have time to mess with it in the AM.

Edit: Ticket opened - HEK-343939: Complete Registration failure
