  • My DNS, both Primary and Secondary, got into DNS amplification attacks.

    This attack trigger was found on October 16, 2023, when I received an email that my server was nearly full. This is not a typical occurrence. Therefore, I discovered that my AdGuard Home DNS Server had been compromised, and that a significant number of IP addresses exceeding 20K were targeted specifically in Brazil, Latin, two France Server, London, and more due to their focus on DNS attacks.

    I decided to conduct a thorough investigation into the individuals present on our server to obtain CIDRs for clients who have been disallowed. As a result, I was able to successfully disallow 99.9 percent of the clients. It is a better way than to block country IP. Because I don’t see myself as needing to waste my IP that is never used. So this way better to do block CIDR Range whoever owner IP they will be automatic disallow because they’re letting them attack DNS Server on us.

    Cisco.com is real, but the content is not.
    This is unusual, everything happening at once. This will cause my server to experience a slowdown.

    After I added the IP CIDRs to the client that were not allowed, I noticed that my dashboard went back to normal. Again, here is the link for IP addresses. I have been working on these for the past three days, but it appears that they have been stopped. Therefore, I want to help your times and your DNS Server and our to-do better. 🙂

  • I Made Outdoor Wireless Internet.

    I am deeply grateful to Lady Bonnie for allowing me to undertake a DIY project at her residence. For this project, I utilized my personal Xfinity modem in her living room, which is registered to my account—I did not use her internet service at any time. Additionally, at her request, I custom-made a cable for her security camera and routed it through an existing opening in her living room wall.

    Furthermore, I installed a Gigabit Wireless Bridge on the outdoor pole that was previously used for her TV antenna. This spot turned out to be ideal for achieving excellent signal strength. The new setup is even more effective than using Xfinity Pods, as it enabled a direct connection to the pole near my RV, allowing me to find the optimal position for both stability and speed.

    I am pleased to share the details of my project below.

    Location Master B is where the circle is that is my pole light.
    See that far, this device can go up to 5KM! So cool which my idea is maybe I can give around to whoever doesn’t have internet. I am happy to set up a network for them.
    The package is very well and secured and the bag very nice.

    You wonder how it works?

    I can help this RV park obtain reliable Wi-Fi service, potentially saving you money compared to high Xfinity bills. I would love to assist your business with a connectivity project. Typically, the network hub is in an office, headquarters, or utility shed where the internet connection enters the property. If your location has COAX or Fiber lines, but they’re too far from key areas, you may not be getting the internet performance you’re paying for. Using extenders in these situations often results in significant speed losses—sometimes 60% to 90%—leaving you unable to upload content to YouTube or access servers effectively.

    To resolve this, I recommend installing a pole-mounted gigabit wireless bridge on the roof. This setup can be aligned to directly connect with your RV, mobile home, or business, maximizing your connection speed and reliability throughout the property.

    Coffee stands are an example. If you don’t have coax wall or cable to use service Internet, we can do wireless bridge. If you have internet from another store, we can ask the office lease for permission to add a Gigabit Wireless Bridge to the building roof. You own a residence or business, I can do install that for you. One cable 100–150 feet to your office or living room to hook up your router is all you need. Unless you change network information on your router, it is a plug and play device.

  • Anthem Coffee | Verrado Network.

    This location is simple and clean up to fix network, and They do have Camera Security, but COX just discontinued these which is crazy. So I removed it from the shelf and removed the old Phone Modem and Router and Security Router. We only need on the shelf is Business Router and Access point and Modem phone and Modem.
