    My lights on the PAP2 never went off, but the service was going to dead air, the CP showed the device connected.

    Maybe a denial of service, how about all of the obviously fake profiles that were being generated and finally had to be brought to Voipo's attention?

    Forum users wouldn't have anything to do with the other portions of the service. They're not even in the same datacenters.

    The attacks do seem to be under control, but we're working on making some changes tonight to beef up our protection since they do seem to come back.

    Even more interesting in where we think they originate, but this isn't really the place to go into that.

    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?
