Wondering Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I am both using the free service and a reseller and I and notice and been told that file manager is not working. It was been hours now and no fix. I already contacted support over 7 hours ago and all I got and that they were on it. What caused this error and when will it be fixed?

It should be fixed now, I think it was because of the maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wondering Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 I was told it was a emergency maintenance because of a DDOS attacker. And yes it's been fixed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompa Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 My account was suspended because of the DDOS attack and now I have been told that my Tennis Club site cannot be hosted again on Byethost. Is it something that I have added to my site that caused the issue or is this a precaution in case there is another DDOS? Can anyone please advise? I have had my site on Byethost for many years and have always enjoyed a good system which has improved over the years to be one of the best. I hate to leave!

thompa Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Thank you for repolying. I checked that out but the version of Cloudfire that comes with a paid plan does not prevent future DDOS attacks... I would need a special paid version of Cloudfire for that to be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude flare is a different company. All cloud flare plans free or otherwise help protect against DOS attacks. But getting a higher plans gives you more features.
