High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

If you know what you're doing (And its home internet) Close all open ports, They'll have no open port to send anything to you at.

Wouldn't this effect your wireless connections?

Nope, Not unless you're planning on hosting any files/sites/servers from your home connection.
I Have seen this done before and the connection to the outside internet was fine.
Though this is going off a low amount of knowledge, But i do know for certain that closed ports cannot be DDOSed.

Contacting your ISP is probably the best option. Even if they can't do anything about it, you can check if you have a static or a dynamic IP. You usually have a dynamic Ip in most countries, because of Ipv4 shortage.
This means that resetting your router should theoretically change your Ip.

Don't use Skype, Don't join other's servers / ie; anything that they could own / teamspeak, csgo, minecraft, doesn't matter.
If you need to use skype get a skype proxy. (youtube tutorial).

Also: To all the people saying "USE A VPN". That would work but the person/people DDoSing you already has your IP address. So it doesn't matter if you use a VPN or not.

If you have a dynamic IP go into your router settings and change your IP.

Are you trolling? Almost all DDoS attacks are routed through port 80 mate. If you close port 80 inbound connections you can't connect to the internet lmao.

Nah, I've seen port 80 Being closed before and the internet working fine, From what i know port 80 is only used if you're hosting websites and people from the outside need to access them.
Not exactly sure how it has been done but 100% I've seen it where they've had all posts closed and their internet has worked perfectly fine.

"Port 80 is the port number assigned to commonly used internet communication protocol, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). It is the port from which a computer sends and receives Web client-based communication and messages from a Web server and is used to send and receive HTML pages or data."

You're 100% incorrect.
