Can't get on, and when you do, things are slow or don't open at all.

Sometimes the truth is stranger then fiction.. lol
Apparently since Covid hit all these high school kids sat at home and learn how to become computer hackers. And a bunch of hackers are running attacks on various servers and we got lucky enough to get picked for today

Joe should be along shortly to tell ya about Cloudflare and DDoS attacks, lol.
Looks like one of their hosts (webair) is having internet issues. Been up and down all morning but appears to be upstream from Dave's servers.
Absolutely. We talked about this a few years back but definitely makes sense to have cloudflare (I’m sure Joe has you pointed in the right direction) and potentially at the size you’re at to have a second host in case your primary host gets a ddos attack.That’s exactly what the conversation was today.. albeit I have no idea what it all means.
So I called webair and they moved our site to another server.. it got attacked again and shut that server down. So they moved it again and isolated rdp from the other sites and only my site got attacked on its own deal.
They basically told me they aren’t putting it back online until we do some cloud fare thing and hide our IP?? Whatever that means. So the IT guy did that and now it’s back online but having some problems.
I’m gonna try and get it straightened out tomorrow and have some real conversations with webair and my IT guys about what this means long term.
