What the Community Says
Cloudflare WARP has a “good when it works” reputation, especially for people who want a quick, simple way to stabilize their connection. It’s often praised for feeling fast and helping with annoying routing issues—some gamers say it reduces disconnects and can even make rough ping situations feel better. People also like that it encrypts your traffic without constantly swapping your public IP like a typical “hide-my-location” VPN.
The big catch is that it’s not the most reliable “do-everything” VPN: some sites and apps don’t play nicely with it, and a few services just block it outright. It can also be hit-or-miss for bypassing censorship—sometimes it works, sometimes it slows to a crawl or fails depending on the network firewall. And if you need help, Cloudflare’s customer support and communication style can rub people the wrong way.

Reviews about "Ddos Protection"
14 reviews"...os aren't happening specifically to FF14, but to a NTT node somewhere in NA. I've been playing with Cloudflare Warp since Dec 26 and only been disconnected twice on the day my server, Diabolos, had technical issues on its end. Otherwise, I ..."
"haven't been ddos'd once!!! very based cloudflare warp"
"Cloudflare warp, the king of anti-ddos baby."
"the way i’ve dodged every ddos since i got cloudflare warp https://t.co/xEzCUP5Re8"
"@RathGames Download Cloudflare WARP and use it. It's free and has prevented me from getting disconnected from DDOS."
"@SageTreacherous @FF_XIV_EN People tried that, OCE got DDoSed in the process. Just use warp from Cloudflare, no sense in using a 3rd party plugin."
"@FeristalJ With the ddos happening people found this new vpn that doesn’t dc them much it’s called cloudflare and some found another called warp something 😩😩😂"
"> Ddos attacks are a solved problem is just that the only solution requires an unviable amount of resources. They aren't **solved** even then. They're *mitigated*. Say Squeenix borrows a few billion from Nvidia and builds out 4-5 brand ..."
"It’s definitely DDOS attacks, if it were the server itself it wouldn’t spare PS5 and VPN/exitlag/Warp users."
"The Solution The best practice is to never expose your port to the internet. Use tunneling to: 🚫 Block Inbound Ports: Hide 18789 from external scanners. 🕵️ Hide IP: Access your bot via a secure domain, keeping your IP private. 🛡️ DDoS Protection: Leverage Cloudflare’s security."
"@AdamElJefe @AZcountertenor @roegamaniac Probably routes the connection through different servers than the ones being DDoS'd. Apparently Cloudflare Warp does the same."
"Most of this is correct. Thank you. Cloudflare doesn’t sell their infrastructure in the way AWS does. I’d also like to point out that cloudflare also has exceedingly terrible customer service— but Fastly is pretty big in Japan and I ..."
"great job now they’re ddosing the cloudflare warp servers"
"Cloudflare warp is 100% required to play final fantasy fourteen i love being ddosed from ffxiv constantly disconnecting from ff xiv grats jp"
