5wire is a certified partner of CloudFlare. As a result, 5wire Hosting customers have two options to enable CloudFlare. Option 1, 5wire Hosting customers can choose not to update their authoritative nameservers to enable CloudFlare. CloudFlare is available under your cPanel through a simple one click sign up setup.

Note: IF YOU DO METHOD 2, THEN YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO METHOD 1

Option 1: Change your name servers (Recommended)


1. Create an account on CloudFlare.com and add your domain.

2. You then need to update your nameservers as stated by CloudFlare, to do this with your domain on our services go to http://www.5wire.co.uk/bill/clientarea.php

3. Go to ‘Manage Your Domain’

4. Select your domain.

5. Click on the ‘Edit Information’ option in the DNS Information field.

6. Enter in the CloudFlare domain name server information.

7. Click on the ‘Save’ button.

Option 2: Enable CloudFlare in cPanel


1. Click on the Cloudflare Icon in the Main Control Panel Interface (Under Advanced Tools).

2. Enter your email address and accept the EULA.

3. Select the domain you want to enable cloudflare for on the box on the left.

4. The interface will pull up a list of sub-domains you can enable cloudflare protection on, click on the grey clouds for the sub-domains you want to enable and wait for them to turn orange.


Note: With option 1 you can find your CloudFlare name server information by going to the DNS settings option in your account dashboard (Settings->DNS Settings).
Please realize that it can take 24-72 hours for the domain name server information to be updated.
With option 2 CloudFlare can only able to accelerate your CNAME records (sub-domains like www.domain.com for example), not your A record (the record for your primary domain, domain.com for example).
