Banter aside, it might be a good idea to limit what goes on this thread.

Allow them to connect, then hack them back, bet their devices are not very well defended  ;)
Think that through... they know how to attack your router but don't know how to defend against it... really :-\

That's a bit like saying 'i can drive a manual, but only know how to change up...' ;D

You'd be surprised  ;) 'Knowing how to attack' eg DOS is a piece of pish, it can be as simple as pinging the fek out of something with large packets.

Thanks for the replies guys  :) I know that they are noobish idiots because they are using DOS attacks in the first place .... I have thought about torching their house but it makes me as bad as them! First it was drug dealers and now it's internet wannabe noob hackers  ;D

I have an appointment to see local plod today @ 5:30pm so I guess that's something, And to be fair if they do nothing about the situation then I don't have many options left other than running cat5 cables all over the house and turning off the WiFi. means I can't use the tab any more though

Friend of mine had all this a while back, cant remember exactly what he did, but in a nut shell configured his router as a Hot Spot which showed the M15 Website as a the Landing Page. soon stopped.

Do you know what port this traffic is on you can then disable this using port fowarding also disable IGMP to stop snooping pings & no need to use miles of cat5 cables can use paired powerline adapters I have a couple & no problem with security so far. ;) ;)

That's a rather great idea.  I might just do that as a honeypot ;D

I was thinking about that and the MAC address issue, MAC can be spoofed easily and you can randomly jump ports which would mean switching off all but the ones you need for Skype, HTTP, etc which gets pretty annoying 12 months down the line and you forget that you had done that and tried to install a new programme  :-[ ::)  ;D

No, that's not how you DoS. That most likely would have zero impact.

Latest firmwares on the accesspoint (I assume the DoS is to the AP, rather than directly to router via Internet) may help. As would a better quality AP.

Sure its a DoS, and not just poorly chosen channels chosen?

With my limited knowledge, if I wanted to deprive my neighbour of his internet, I would simply cut his dropwire  ;D
He could still use 3G, of course.

Any joy from the plod, I doubt that they'll do anything so ask the bloke once nicely to desist, if not just slap him. If he's a big bloke get a mate to do him. :y ::) ;D
