Your server with IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is blocked in our network, because of this the server is not reachable at the moment. This may be caused by illegal activities or attacks originating or targeting at your server. Please contact our support via ticket system to clarify the situation. (Null routed)

and my server down , i tried to close all ports and make my server very high secuirty but i failed , and ddos attack didnt stop

There's none, your Server is doomed forever and this is sadly the Truth.

You need to buy an anti-ddos mitigation system.

well, you've got two options to be honest,


give up and realise the ddos won't stop


or, invest in a DDoS protection - [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

yeah, because a guy who thinks 'very high security' is going to stop DDoS attacks is going to buy 500k worth of DDoS mitigation appliances, bandwidth and colocation

Well, Hyperfilter(which so far so long seems to be the best solution for SRO servers) costs 500$ monthly, if not mistaken. To answer your second question, pretty much yeah - any server that isn't protected by a hardware firewall(that means no shitty softwares like anti-ddos guardian and the likes of it) will go down within few seconds of being attacked by a mediocre botnet.

Well, the prices go from 200-5k $

Happily there haven't been a lot of DDoS attacks lately since playsro got closed :)


(There is a much fairer competition atm, and I don't think there are a lot of pserver owners out there with actual botnets, not talking about script kiddies with 'booters')

velestia seems to be on a HEAVY attack
also, yeah, the DDoS will always be a problem, even with a physical firewall, there is always gonna be a chance of success.
I wonder if in the future, DDoS will be still be a enemy of servers

hardware firewalls aren't designed to protect against DDoS attacks, but to control the network itself, I have no idea who would attack velestia, since they don't seem to focus on the 'turf' of other major servers

I heard there were some rumours about Venture attacking them, if that was the case it probably wouldn't be online anymore

true
without anti ddos , you wont be able to run a sro server -.-
so dont think to open a server without anti ddos

Sadly,even with protected servers,you can't get the ultimate protection.

If you purchased a 5gbps flood protection,and someone flooded you with 10gbps,the company will either close your server or require you to upgrade to a much more expensive package.
