Do you have any idea how much the hardware costs that filters out a TCP SYN flood attack?
It took us 24 hours from start of attack to find a working solution.
I just filter the packets and trust in EV1s anti DDoS solution.You don't need your own hardware for that your hoster should be able to help you or at least provide his own effective services for a reasonable low fee.

The guys from the FBI are clueless idiots and can't do anything anyway.
