    Hello,

    Love the plugin. I would like to see the ability to whitelist IP addresses formatted: ##.###.##.###

    Currently, its not possible and throws an invalid IP address error when saving (I see the note about only IPV4 & formatted IPs).

    My issue is my host uses an IP address formatted ##.###.##.### and I so I keep getting lockout notices for their IP when they really shouldn’t be getting locked out.

    If I’m missing something or there’s another way to whitelist them, I’m all ears.

    Thanks again for the outstanding plugin and great support.

  • I think you need to do it like this for the IP network you are on if you do not have a fixed IP ###.###.###.*
    contact your provider who will be able to advise you about this

    Thanks!

    I got the IPs to at least get accepted by WP-Better Security, so hopefully no more lockouts or event emails will occur with those specific IPs.

    But how did you do it? I am having the same problem – my range is 66.102.0.0 –
    66.249.64.0 – 66.249.95.255
    and it is rejected, using “066” etc does not work.
