Sorry about that, should be fixed now. We've been seeing a huge uptick in DDoS attacks at JKA.io since the start of the COVID-19 situation, and sometimes we have to play around with either very strict, or experimental firewall rules in order to keep everything running smoothly. The alternative...

@Pet a van if you're still having issues (or anyone else is), please: Restart both your modem/router and your computer (actually do both) Wait up to a day If it's still happening the next day, PM me your IP address and I'll see if your ISP is doing something criminally braindead to your traffic...

@Spaghetti @MaceMadunusus JKHub master server's been seeing a couple of attacks over the past days too, if you want, I can get you a JKA.io IP with DDoS protection to point the DNS record to and I can take care of everything else (for free), even as a temporary solution. Your call, just let me...

We (JKA.io) have been seeing several hundred filtered DDoS attempts over the past several days on servers we host, it seems to be a JKA-wide thing targeting essentially any server on any mod that gets a meaningful amount of players. The actual DDoS is fairly simple, and trivial for us to...

PMed him and fixed it. :) He was being blocked by the JKA.io firewall because of a bad port forwarding rule he'd set up, which made him send all his JKA traffic from port 1 accidentally. Humans never send traffic from port 1 - they most commonly use port 29070 - but some DDoS attacks do. He was...

You're probably not interested in this - I've talked about the possibility with various past MBII teams over the years - but if circumstances have changed, I'd be happy to offer either free web hosting or JKA server hosting through JKA.io if it helps. The only caveat is we can't give you...

I've finally gotten around to updating the original post here. Mainly I just updated a lot of outdated information, but some of the other stuff that's new: I tried to emphasize better that even other providers who advertise DDoS protection typically can't filter complex get* floods (because the...

Yup-yup, sorry about that. Probably an Anti VPN false positive, but may be any of several other things. it'll go away on its own, but if you want to make it go away much faster, you can do that by restarting your modem/router and your computer. There's really no need to keep summoning me any...

Taking off my server hosting hat for a moment and putting on my hat as the JKHub staff member managing that master server: we don't.

Issue will correct itself if you encounter it, just restart your modem/router and your computer, wait a few hours, and it'll go away on its own. There's a whole number of reasons this sort of thing can happen, and there's kind of two issues intermingling here - getting stuck on awaiting...

Turns out, if I'm given completely incorrect information, and people who aren't using VPNs insist to me they're using VPNs, I reach conclusions that are wrong. You guys specifically are suffering from an unrelated network issue on our end affecting a small minority of players, that has nothing...

To shed a little light: our hosting has seen a big increase in people using VPNs to bypass censorship lately, mainly on account of a sharp rise in internet censorship in Russia. You may have seen news about the Russian government trying to block Telegram by blocking access to entire datacenters...

Thanks for all the praise :) I really appreciate it.

Honestly, this is probably not something you'd need to worry about with our hosting. I'm not saying we never experience crashes or anything (and we have no control over mods' code), but in between... OpenJK fixing just about every crash you'd encounter in a vanilla JKA server Our DDoS...

Definitely not, that would be horrifying :p they mostly include such creative things as "Caelum's hosting" and "oh god I can't think of a name but I host stuff." Also there was a brief stretch of "Big Truck", but that was mostly a webhosting thing rather than a JKA hosting thing. Thanks for the...

Will probably do in future. In the meantime though, you can open cmd.exe (presuming you're on Windows) and type in: ping mothership.caelish.com for EU. Add ~5-10ms overhead for JKA to the ping you get and you get the ping you'll have in game ping basestar.caelish.com for NA, same thing. Maybe...

Woo! Sent you an email. :)

@Gnome Yes. Exactly. :P Go fill in the order form and I'll have something up for you within a couple of hours. If you do it now, I'll get it up before I go to bed.

Hey guys, @LoU mentioned I could post an ad here, huge thanks to him :) So I run a JKA server hosting business at www.JKA.io. It's been around for many years, and we currently host 50ish JKA servers. We host servers across pretty much every mod, including the vast majority of popular JA+...

I have been summoned. Hi. I run jka.io. Happy to answer any questions if it helps. :P
