Dos protection

I was Dossed offline after I began winning in a game and I have the xr500 and I was wondering how I set it up to protect me from further attacks because it says it has Dos protection but I don't know how to set it up and this has happened 3 times now.

Re: Dos protection

Are you certain it was an attack and not a disconnection from the server? The DoS protection is enabled by default, I assume you mean DDoS protection, that is the Hybrid VPN feature allowing you to apply a VPN to your device so if you are attacked the VPN server goes down but you can reconnect to another server.
