Windows 7 - Cannot block IP whatsoever. Nightmare.

I've been plagued on my gameservers by someone who constantly use cheats, and have been trying to ban his IP via router and windows firewall. No matter I do windows constantly accepts and replies to the IP. It feels like a nightmare and I have no idea why windows isn't doing jack crap when blocking.

I setup outbount and inbound rules not to send/receive to this IP but yet the router and windows processes packets from that address.

It's probably spoofed but does anyone have any idea why this isn't working? I should also mention the game's primary protocol uses UDP.

What router do you have? Can you give us a print screen of the ACL's showing how you have tried to stop the IP.

The IP wants stopping at the router.


Thanks

I'm using a Westell 9100EM.

Hello,

That looks correct. I'm not too familier with these firewalls. Can you define the protocols? Is there an option for ANY?


Dave

FYI - Manual is here:

The advance filtering effects all types of protocols, but I don't see the need in specifying.

In the manual which I linked you to it specify's in there.. Its worth doing as a test.


Dave

Well can't test if the person isn't in the server lol. But I know for a fact it works other addresses.

Lol, do it with another address then? Get your friend to connect to the Server and change the IP to block his.

Without knowing the Firewall inside and out, its trial and error ;-)
