They don't move to another ISP?  Not worried about that, I'd love for it to
be someone else's problem.  But are you in an area where there is no other
viable choice for Internet?

We give 1 warning.  Second time.  Banned for 1 month.  

If they sign back up and get a second, banned for 1 year.

 

I haven't had to do a permanent ban yet.

Subject: [AFMUG] customers with repeat DDoS attacks

 

Has anyone come up with a successful strategy for customers who manage to
provoke repeated DDoS attacks against them, other than to disconnect their
service?

 

I've got one who just got their 3rd strike after 2 previous warnings.

 

In 20 years in this business, I've only had this happen once previously.
That customer begged and pleaded and said it wouldn't happen again, he
needed Internet for his business, he said it was his son's fault and he
would ban his son from using the Internet.  So I turned him back on and of
course it happened again.

 

Given the pandemic, I'd like to think there is something I could do, like
require a detailed explanation of what happened (I assume one of his gamer
kids keeps talking smack and getting booted), and how he has dealt with the
situation.  But given my limited previous experience, I expect that would
just be gullible on my part, like Charlie Brown and the football.
