The wall
is the product.
Every hosting provider claims DDoS protection. Most of them mean "we'll null-route you when an attack starts." We mean automatic, game-tuned mitigation running 24/7 in front of every node — dropping attack traffic before it reaches your hardware, recognizing FiveM, Minecraft, and source-engine traffic as legitimate instead of breaking it. The wall is not an upsell. The wall is the entire reason Relay9 exists.
Defense in depth,
not defense by hope.
Every packet sent to your workload travels through four layers. Each one exists because a single layer fails — and we refuse to ship a station that fails.
Edge — tier-1 network mitigation
Customer traffic enters through a tier-1 carrier network with automatic DDoS mitigation engaged at the edge. Attack traffic is identified by signature and dropped before it ever reaches your node. Game protocols (FiveM, RedM, Minecraft, source-engine) are recognized and filtered with protocol-aware rules — not generic L4 scrubbing that breaks gaming traffic.
Transit — hardened backbone
Multi-carrier transit per region with redundant path routing. If a provider degrades, traffic reroutes automatically. We monitor BGP health continuously and adjust announcements when transit conditions change.
Node — your hardware
Your VPS or dedicated instance lives on Ryzen 9 hardware with ECC memory and NVMe RAID storage. Dedicated boxes run DDR5; shared instances run ECC memory. Customer instances are isolated at the network layer — one customer under attack does not affect others. Tenant density stays low enough that you actually get the resources you paid for.
Operations — humans on the line
A station is only as good as its operators. Critical alerts page real engineers, not a chatbot. We publish postmortems for any incident affecting customer uptime — the public ones live on the Transmissions blog.

user to your node.
Common vectors,

A non-exhaustive list. New attack patterns get added to the scrubbing layer as they emerge — sometimes within hours of being observed in the wild.

Launch regions reflect where founding operators have signaled demand. Additional regions activate as the founders list fills out the map.
No wall is unbreakable.
We've seen hosts claim "100% protection" or "unstoppable mitigation." That's marketing, not engineering. A sufficiently large or sufficiently novel attack will always create some impact — the questions are: how much, for how long, and what does the operator do next.
Here is what we actually promise: traffic routes through our scrubbing layer continuously, attacks are dropped automatically across documented vectors, novel attacks get human attention within twelve minutes of impact, and we publish postmortems for any incident that breaches SLA. We will tell you what happened, not what we wish had happened.
