A carrier built on years of game hosting.
Packetrush is the carrier brand of GamerHost s.r.o., the Czech company that operates AS50338. It sells IP transit, Layer-2 capacity, bare metal, colocation and virtualization from its own network in Prague and Frankfurt — the same network that has kept GamerHost.pro online through years of DDoS attacks.
A new name on a network that is not new
For many years the company behind Packetrush has provided hosting under the GamerHost.pro brand — game servers, VPS and dedicated servers for players, communities and studios.
Game hosting is a hard place to run a network. Game servers attract DDoS attacks as a matter of routine, and keeping them online meant learning to mitigate those attacks in-house — volumetric floods, amplification and application-layer attacks — without degrading the legitimate traffic alongside them.
Packetrush (AS50338) offers that network to other operators as a carrier product.
What game hosting taught the network
Mitigation built in-house
Scrubbing was built to keep our own game servers online, not bought in as a resale tier. It sits inline in AS50338 and is on by default on every port.
Latency-sensitive by default
Players notice every dropped session and every added millisecond, so filtering has to be surgical. Gaming vectors such as A2S, FiveM and TS3INIT floods are covered out of the box.
The same engineers
The people who ran the network through those attacks are the ones who answer you today — directly, with no consumer support tier in between.
