Description of my issue: There is a hacker that keeps trying to attack my websites, he’s ip changes constantly, I´d like forbid him access using an IP range, however his IPs have only two values in common:

36.75.171.80
36.75.9.146

How do I add that range to the blacklist?

thanks!

You can add the following to the IP blacklist:
36.75.0.0/255.255.0.0

If you prefer something more human readable you can express the same thing as:
36.75.0.1-36.75.255.255

Please note that by doing that you kick out of your site a very large part of Indonesia
