 * Hi [@andrezasv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrezasv/),
    Currently we
   don’t have a setting for this. If you use the Rename Login Page feature they 
   will see a message telling them to log in if they want to access wp-admin pages.
 * We will consider adding a setting in a future release to allow administrators
   to redirect people to 404 page when trying to access hidden wp-admin.

 * I am having a problem with repeated attempts to login. Even though the Rename
   Login Page feature has been installed and implemented, the bot is still trying/
   blog/wp-login.php several times a second. As my standard 404 code is almost 20k
   I was running out of bandwidth.
 * I have blocked the IP via the 404 firewall feature which is fine till they try
   a different IP address.
 * While the setting you are thinking about will be quite useful for humans who 
   make a mistake, for repeat offenders, i.e. bots, then a redirect to 127.0.0.0
   would be much more useful as it will eat up much less bandwidth.

 * Make that a redirect to 127.0.0.1
