IS International bandwidth down again?

[matt156]

Anyone else having problems?

 

[!!DV!!]

Yes same here

 

[matt156]

Sigh. Someone give IS Viagra. They can't keep it up

 

[!!DV!!]

I don't know if that would even help...

 

[ferris]

any idea when IS is gonna be up again????? My international is still down

 

[!!DV!!]

It was up last night after 8Pm till about 9.50 this morning ... They are having problems between creece and New York...

 

[matt156]

You would think they would have some sort of redundancy

 

[MrGray]

I literally cannot work when this happens! This seems to be becoming a regular occurrence.

[!!DV!!]

Yaeh you would but, this is Africa ! Maybe the Redundant path is on the same run ?

 

[!!DV!!]

The only redundancy Is saw was once you hit the US.

I had to switch over to my SAIX account. IS is dead. Also, their dns server on 168.210.2.2 seems to not exist?

 

[matt156]

The annoying thing is that this is satellite bandwidth. It can't be that hard to contract to a backup provider. Or maybe they just don't give a #$%!

 

[!!DV!!]

I'm still able to get DNS from IS

 

[matt156]

DNS should work. It's only international

seems like the viagra is helping.... seems up

 

[Karnaugh]

No, it really isn't.

7 196.26.96.198 (196.26.96.198) 33.237 ms 31.550 ms 31.712 ms

The reason DNS works is probably because it gets CIR bandwidth.

 

[Karnaugh]

Their other servers have perfect international.
