    Check with the hosting provider and see if they can add that IP range to the server firewall.

    Is there a way to add the IP range to the host.deny file?

    Are you running some kind of content management system or forum? Some CMSs and forums have a built in IP deny feature.

    If you have tried using the IP deny manager in CPAnel, you may want to submit a trouble ticket to tech support. Because that feature should work.

    If you have server root access you can block IP from server as well here are the command to block and unblock the particular IP via putty

    TO BLOCK IP
    iptables -I INPUT -s 111.111.111.111 -j DROP

    TO UNBLOCK IP
    iptables -D INPUT -s 111.111.111.111 -j DROP

    This command will drop the request which is comming to the server from and particular IP

    This will help for sure ;)
