running the crawler crashes my modem #237

I downloaded and tested the magnetico binary and when I ran it I thought my internet went out. it turned out that running this application will crash my tdlte outdoor modem. I have no idea why. and it crashes it fast. as in the second I run it the modem gets unresponsive after 1 sec and I have to wait for it to reboot.

magneticod does the same to my modem, and that's because it essentially spams many IP ranges with UDP packets. I run magneticod on a server directly connected to a network instead now.

I am on residential internet so what you did is impossible for me.

any idea that maybe the app can fix this maybe by a parameter that limit that?

also does that mean my modem is low quality or this is bigger than that? because my router that is before that in the link doesn't crash because of this . thought it is a linksys 1200ac with 500MB ram

There has been discussion about implementing a limiter into magneticod, but no one really comes around to do that.

And well, most modems issued by ISPs are utter trash. They certainly don't expect us to be spamming UDP packets out into the wild either though ;)

I actually did. https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico/pull/227
