DDoS Protected dedicated server in Europe

Background
We run a game server hosting company which has been running since 2012. We currently rent roughly 200 dedicated servers from 6 different providers. We currently rent roughly 60 of these dedicated servers from WebNX. We've been with them for just over 7 years and I can safely say that they've been the best datacentre we've used. I know how important reviews are to a company; I feel that we've used WebNX long enough to write an honest review.

Support
We've had our fair share of rubbish support from datacentres in the past. WebNX definitely provides the best support out of all the datacentres we've used. During the past 7 years, I'd say the average response time for a ticket at WebNX was about 10 minutes. We've found the biggest issue with large datacentres is that their support teams are disjointed. This leads to issues which "don't fit the norm" taking a long time to resolve. WebNX is large enough to provide 24/7 365 day support yet small enough to provide genuinely good "straight to the point" support.

Reliability / Uptime
All the datacentres we've used have had some sort of major outage at some point in time. During the 7 years, there have been a couple of network outages at WebNX but the issues have always been resolved quickly along with good communication. Considering the number of servers we have with them, I'd say the uptime is incredibly high.

Hardware
During the past 7 years we've switched our server hardware roughly 4 or 5 times. It's as simple as contacting them letting them know what hardware you like, they provide a reasonably priced quote and in a couple of days, the server is delivered. I'd say on average, broken hardware is resolved in roughly an hour from us opening the ticket.

DDoS Protection
I'd say this is the downside of WebNX. They'll automatically nullroute the IP address if a DDoS attack is detected. The amount of time the IP address is nullrouted depends on how much traffic the attack is sending. It's not really a huge issue for us as we can quickly work out which one of our clients was targeted and then get migrate them over to a DDoS protected IP address. I'm hoping at some stage they'll provide onsite DDoS protection.

Price
They're very reasonably priced considering the support and customisation which they offer.

Network
WebNX's network is top notch. Nothing to complain about at all.

Keep up the great work WebNX! Would be great if you could get another datacentre setup in East Coast USA.

We have been with HyperFilter for about 10 months now.
We host a game which makes use of both TCP/UDP and heard good reviews about HyperFilter and their protection, which is why we decided to go and get a server at them.

They are fairly priced compared to their competitors such as KoDDoS, DDoS-Guard, Voxility, etc.

The moment we moved to them, we haven't had any problems until a few days ago when we were receiving a continues UDP DDoS flood which took down the (game) server.
After discussing with the host, they provided a solution that has been working excellent so far. If you know what your traffic looks like, they can adjust the firewall rules in order to lower the impact on your server, which is not something that many other hosts provide. Their support is top-notch and extremely fast as well.

Overall, I rate HyperFilter a 9/10. I would definitely recommend HyperFilter to anyone who is hosting a game and has DDoS problems.

Hello,
This is my experience and review with RackNerd after 6 months.

My mind always play with me to buy the latest in technology, so
6 month ago i hired a RackNerd server with
this features, even without needing them yet.


Dedidated Server
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6x 3.60 GHz / 12 Threads
64 GB RAM
2x 480 GB SSD (RAID-1)
1x 1TB SATA HDD (Backup Drive)
40 TB Monthly Transfer
1Gbps Network Port
/29 IPv4 Allocation - 5 Usable IPs
INCLUDES: cPanel/WHM Metal License (Up To 100 Accounts)
INCLUDES: LiteSpeed Web Server Web Host Essential License w/ LSCache
INCLUDES: RackNerd 24x7 Full Server Management

This sunday my business went offline, supposedly due to
a power outage in the building, i ask for backup my sites in
another server for which i paid, and they said is not possible
due to unclear reasons.

Then I asked if they don't have power plants, the answer was evaded,
unfortunately they don't offer refunds and was my fault not to read that.

I've always liked supporting small businesses, but with these
dubious behaviors and policies, I don't think I will ever do it again.

their support is good, there were no problems during setup,
but they are not prepared for when things go wrong.

I can be sure that after the damage to my business,
they don't have a damage repair policy either.

So to my misfortune RackNerd hosting,
It is not prepared for me, nor for you.

Any recommendation will be appreciated

Hello,

I am looking for a dedicated server provider that can preferably provide servers in both US and Australia. Happy to consider different providers if the prices are really good.

Minimum Requirements
16 Cores / 32 Threads @3.5Ghz+ (AMD Ryzen 3950X)
32GB RAM
128GB SSD
DDOS Mitigation

I heard of Tempest hosting from several Discord servers, and give it a try.

Bought an M610 dedicated server in Amsterdam, running X5677, 32GB RAM, 900GB storage, 10gbps dedicated unmetered port. yes, you're not reading it wrong.

Onboarding process, it was smooth sailing. Registered, paid, and their IPMI system will automatically install the OS I chose. They also provide "Firewall Manager", where we can add filters on what ports/ips/protocols should be allowed/rejected to our server IP. They also provide DDoS filters, such as OpenVPN/VSE/TCP/TS3.

Compared to other providers, specs/hardware wise, there are far better options (ryzen/epyc/E5), but considering the price, no other providers can offer what they offer. 10gbit unmetered dedicated port for only US$150/mo!?

They do offer Ryzen servers, but I think it's a pre-order system and takes 2-6 weeks.

Network wise, the downside is that they're not on any exchanges/IXs (AMS-IX, DE-CIX, NL-IX, LINX, etc). They only use tier-1 upstreams (GTT & NTT), so sometimes routing outside of Europe (specifically Asia Pacific) is a bit weird.

In terms of support, they offer two options, either via WHMCS or their Discord server. All of the people who I talk to are friendly and knowledgeable.

Overall, for $150/mo, 10gbps unmetered port, it's fantastic. I hope that more & better specs will be available in the near future.

I have received some great help from this amazing forum regarding finding a good storage hosting provider and I'm currently negotiating with a few companies: Sharktech, Psychz, Leaseweb, (OHV)
The main difference between these hosts are the BW cost and it varies a lot. I would like to ask about CDN rates as if we can get a good CDN deal we don't have to care so much about the Origin BW usage.

Can you let me know the most cost-effective CDN's and their pricing for:
~1Gbps/300TB Month = ?
~10Gbps/3PB Month = ?
~30Gbps/10PB Month = ?

When looking at the online comparison charts and CDN calculators the offers are very crappy and we need to get much deeper into the good deals so trying to get some business intelligence before starting some serious negotiations.
Just an example of a "cheap" CDN provider is BelugaCDN who quoted 1PB/month at $5K we wouldn't even pay $500 for this so what's going on with these crazy rates floating around?

Thanks again!

and that guy said he have rack from hetzner, what about it??

i am asking in forum because i can get more knowledge and explaination here

please share your replies.

I love the company and I know there is no hosting company that cant block all types of attacks, always had my gameserver attacked been with OVH, NFO Servers, PhoenixNAP and many many others more, now I am with RSNET because I really like their location and network... but this time the attack is different. It doesn't seem volumetric seems like some kind SYN attack I am guessing due to the CPU being at 100%.
Their anti ddos filters or firewalls doesn't seem to even detect it.

Last ticket I sent them they told me to apply this rules ( I didn't because the attacks stopped but I just applied those rules, honestly I dont know if they will help a lot because on my experience reading IPTABLES or any kind of software firewall doesnt seem to do much on DDoS attacks)

This is how my netdata graph looks like

Any advice ?

I even nullrouted the IP that I think might be getting attacked but didn't do nothing ( super super strange )

Hello Buddies, any one can tell me best way to protect a server from DDOS Attacks ? Any Software or Firewall or Configuration from my side I can do to protect my dedicated server from DDOS Attacks ?
