Alright ill read them, but there has to be a way in the software that you can manually plug in the scripting to block all connections over 1000+ from the same ip in 10 seconds or less.
If a hacker wants your site down, there is nothing you can do about it:
"One common method of attack involves saturating the target (victim) machine with external communications requests, such that it cannot respond to legitimate traffic, or responds so slowly as to be rendered effectively unavailable."
US-Certs confirms it also:
"Unfortunately, there are no effective ways to prevent being the victim of a DoS or DDoS attack, but there are steps you can take to reduce the likelihood that an attacker will use your computer to attack other computers."
Whoever tells you they can stop a DDoS attack, they are telling you big red lies. There is no way in the world you will stop (for example) a russian hacker who wants to keep your site down for a month.
