You could be getting ddosed but in order for that to happen this person has to have your IP(unsure if this is listed under Arma 2 servers). I would just suggest not playing on these servers anymore or watch who you play with and what TS servers you join for example.

Its most likely an issue with your ISP. I get those sometimes too and there is nothing you can really do until they sort it out. How are your webpages loading? Are streaming services like twitch working okay?
