• Ask HN: Reasonably priced EU hosting with DDoS filtering?

  OVH offers more than a firewall. They provide all of their OVHCloud custoemrs with anti-DDoS services that will block most attacks automatically at no additonal charge. https://us.ovhcloud.com/security/anti-ddos/ AWS offers their Shield product, although your requirement of "reasonably priced" may exclude AWS in general https://aws.amazon.com/shield/ .

• Enigma cold war IP global banning people trying to join their server when full.

  You just dont hear bout much these days as a consumer since most games go FULL GREED (aka Live Service) and do not let you host your own server. Big companies use AWS etc and have ways to deal with this sort of thing. Source: about 1 year ago

• Tutorials for secure backend development and production pipelines?

  Hi, I went briefly through your post, and can add that aws has a Shield service, that is designed to tackle ddos attacks... Hope it helps somehow :) Https://aws.amazon.com/shield/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Stupid Question: Can DDoS attack or some other attack mess up EC2 Auto Scaling ?

  There's a whole service just for protecting against DDoS. Source: over 1 year ago

• WAF Rate limiting solution for different IPs

  Are you sure AWS Shield doesn't fit this use case? It sounds more like a DDoS. Source: over 1 year ago

• Recommendation for a wifi router with L2TP or other VPN server support?

  If your current router supports a custom firmware like openWRT then you could do this without having to buy a new one. Source: 5 months ago

• OpenWrt Site Account Creation

  Unfortunately, I can't create an account via Github on the openwrt site. Source: 8 months ago

• openwrt.org not loading

  Anyone else having trouble reaching openwrt.org right now? I can't get the forums, main page or downloads. I've done plenty of troubleshooting and there isn't anything else on my network having trouble reaching anything else on the internet. Source: 9 months ago

• Things just got a little weird, my current network is down, I'm a newb trying to start from the ground up and I found out I actually have another (newer) wifi router.... what to do?

  On the router. openwrt.org has lots of great documentation that lays out exactly what you're looking for and then some. Source: 11 months ago

• As of June 2023, what is the best router that I could buy specifically for ease of use with all things pi-hole related

  Is the Verizon one a combined modem/router? If you want to add your own router, you might have to call them and ask them to put it into bridged mode. I like OpenWRT because it gives you a lot of customization options. I've just been running it on an old TP-Link Archer C7 for the past 5 years or so and I haven't had any issues, but that's ancient hardware now. Source: 11 months ago
