Need Help! About which method is better for my VPN to protect my xbox.

Hello,

So I am deciding to buy a VPN to prevent myself from a DDoS attack if someone ever did attempt to do that to me. However I do not know whether I should connect it through wired or wireless. If it was through a wired connection, then I would have to use an Ethernet cable and keep on disconnecting it if I was to ever pull an IP, and then re-establish the connection to re-launch my VPN back to my Xbox live connection so I am protected on Xbox Live.

On the other side I could decide to go wireless, however I would have to buy a flash router which would mean that I would not keep disconnecting from Xbox live but those routers are not especially cheap. On the contrary, some routers already have VPN's installed which could be easier to set-up.

So if I could have any contributions on which method I should go about protecting my XBL connection, feel free to reply. Wireless is easier but more expensive, through a wired connection is cheaper but could be a hassle.

Also if anyone has any good suggestions for a flash router (that supports Xbox 360) AND/OR a good VPN, I would love to hear.

Thanks

Here do you have a test of VPN's. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ … li=1#gid=0
I'm sorry but I have no idea of cheap flash routers.
