Nexthosting Schutz
Players stay connected. Flooders get locked out.
Every game server at Nexthosting is protected against DDoS attacks at no extra cost. With a dedicated IP address, your server gets a filter all to itself – and you get the panel where you watch every attack bounce off.
All quiet. Blue means your players. They walk through the gate – that is your server's port.
Example, no real data
Arriving right now242
Turned away1
Let through238
packets per second
Moving example from the protection panel: small squares run towards a wall. Blue squares – the players – pass through the gate to the server, during an attack too. Sand-coloured squares – the attack – get stuck at the wall.
Sand stays outside
Senders that open connections in bulk are locked out automatically while an attack is running. You lift any lock with one click.
Blue keeps playing
Existing connections are never cut. Regulars – anyone who has spent a while on your server – get in straight away, even in the middle of an attack.
Your situation room
Protection panel, tab "Herkunft" (origin): world map with traffic by country, three blocked countries hatched in red, next to it the strongest countries of origin.
You see where it comes from
The map shows the traffic to your server, country by country. Block a country with one click – or allow only the ones you choose. If you like, the protection blocks attacking countries by itself while an attack is running.
Protection panel, page of one attack: "Vorbei. Der Angriff dauerte 22 minutes" (over, the attack lasted 22 minutes), below it the course – above the line what did not get through, below what was let through – and the attack in figures.
Every attack is put on record
Course, waves and senders, minute by minute – as a PDF and as a table. One click reports the attack to Nexthosting: an urgent notice at once, followed by a full report as a PDF. On request with a confirmation you can hand to the police or other authorities.
Protection panel, tab "Einstellungen" (settings): the three protection levels as pictures of the wall with gates of different width, below them the switches for what the protection does by itself during an attack.
You decide how strict
Three protection levels – and if you like, the protection tightens by itself when an attack starts. You are told by e-mail and Discord as soon as an attack begins and when it is over. Plus: a test of the protection at the push of a button, co-managers for your community's admins, and traffic per port.
What the protection costs
With every game server
The data centre's basic protection against DDoS attacks. At no extra cost.
With a dedicated IP address
A filter for your address alone, and the protection panel with it – for €3.79 a month plus a one-time setup fee of €4.99, with no further charge. Usually set up within a few minutes; you can also add it later.

You pick the dedicated IP address as an add-on while ordering. Server location: a data centre in Germany.

Included for free: your server’s live status
Your players can see for themselves whether the server is up and how full it is right now.
In Discord
A message in your channel that updates itself: status, players, map and address. No bot needed.
On websites and forums
A banner as an image, for a signature for example. You copy the embed code in the panel.
Included with every game server at no extra charge, you switch it on in the panel. Player count and map are available for games with a server query, online or offline is always shown.
Example: a Discord channel shows the status message of a server with 12 of 50 players, ping, uptime and address. Below it is a forum post whose signature contains the status banner of the same server. Both show the same player count.

  

    
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about your GMod server.

    
Basic is enough for small DarkRP servers. With many Workshop addons, custom jobs and an active community, Advanced is the better choice – more RAM for extensive Lua scripts.
Yes. You add Workshop addons via resource.AddWorkshop() or a collection, and you upload your own addons via SFTP. You switch FastDL on in the panel with one click: we provide maps and content for your players and keep them up to date – no web space of your own needed.
As a rule of thumb: about 1–2 GB per 10 active players. DarkRP with 32 slots runs well on 6–8 GB, TTT with 16–24 players on 4–6 GB.
Yes, every plan has backup slots (1 to 5, depending on the plan). You back up with one click or set up a schedule yourself in the panel. A backup contains the files of your server – addons and their configuration included; you restore with a click.
In the panel using Start, Stop and Restart. You set up scheduled restarts as a task, for example daily at 4 am.
Yes. As a customer you can create up to 10 loading screens with live preview, rules and a Discord notice, and you get a ready-made sv_loadingurl link. You don't need your own web hosting for it.
