    I recently installed Limit Login Attempts reloaded and was surprised to find out I was getting almost 100 login attempts per day.

    So, I blocked whole ranges of IPs to get the attacks down to a trickle.

    Unfortunately, the plugin is now blocking me too. I need to manually disable the plugin to login successfully and then re-enable it after I am logged in.

    I have whitelisted my own IP but that doesn’t help. I have checked and the IP addresses coming in are not mine and my IP is not in any of the blocked ranges.

    I see that others have had similar issues in the past. I am using Cloudflare for DNS and CDN. That seems to have come up as relevant in other threads.

    Is there something that I can do to resolve this? Or do I need to switch plugins?

    Here is the information from the Debug Info:

    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR = IP0
    HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP = IP0
    REMOTE_HOST = IP1
    REMOTE_ADDR = IP1

    Help is greatly appreciated.
