wolstech Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Been noticing this a lot over the past 24 hours (and am surprised nobody else has posted about it). I thought DNS issues initially, but they don't ping by IP either during downtime. http://heliohost.grd.net.pl/monitor/ I'm guessing all these reds are an HE issue since all of our servers go down at once?

Krydos Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing since HE outages show all of the services going down at once so I contacted them yesterday during the first batch of slowness/downtime and they said we were being DDoS'd. They were targeting Tommy, but it was enough network traffic to take everything down. 840 mb/s was the highest spike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 840MB/sec...dang, though that's a small DDoS from my understanding. No wonder everything goes down. Network's clogged with all the junk packets being lobbed at us... Seems the server has no issue recovering when the traffic flood stops though. I'm guessing the firewall is taking the heat on Tommy?

Krydos Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Yeah, seems so. These attacks always make me wonder why exactly though? I wish these idiots would at least send us a message saying like, "This is for always suspending all of my phishing websites that I create!" or "One of the websites that you host put up a picture of me with a derp face!" or "I picked your IP randomly from the 4 billion IPv4 addresses that I could have chosen from."
