I have 2 ping monitors running on my IP and the firewall in my router thinks im being DDOS'ed and is dropping packets :P

I did whitelist TBB's IP in the IP tables that was why it was good for 2 days, but done some other IP table configuration and wiped over the TBB IP and cba putting it back alongside my new config

was a coincidence that there were SNR issues at the same time my firewall decided I was being DDOSed
