MyBroadband downtime

[MickeyD]

Oh just stop complaining dammit!

Not complaining... Merely informing admin of an issue.

We had another spate of downtime just before 11:00.

Apologies for the outage. Things should be back to normal now and our host is investigating what is causing the repeated problems.

I told you guys earlier..

Full root cause analysis damnit!

Still getting some timeout errors and slow page loads this side.

Probably a misconfigured network/server script getting activated randomly somewhere....

The site is working fine from my computer, but I still can't get on from my phone. Are there still problems?

I couldn't connect to MyBB for the past 12+ hours.

 

[Drifter]

No problems here

Thanks for the feedback. Were you trying to connect from outside South Africa? Which ISP?

There weren't supposed to be problems... which network were you trying to connect from?

Telkom Mobile, it's fixed now, but didn't work from early yesterday morning until now.

Was trying in the UK - via BT. Also checked a few of the is it down right now web sites and they also reported MyBB down.

Not sure if this helps:

Same for me, from the UK. Think it stopped working on the evening of the 5th, just came back sometime late morning of the 7th. Didn't work from my mobile or landline. Online site checkers were all reporting mybb down.

 

[zippy]

Yes, It was down from the UK for me as well. From BT, O2 mobile, and from work. Online checkers reported mybb down.

Experienced more downtime just now. Connection timeout errors. Other websites loaded with no issue.

About the same for me from Oman.

Still happening intermittently.

A quick update on the downtime affecting folks trying to access MyBroadband from the UK and some other overseas regions.

Our host has had to take a number of steps to mitigate DDoS attacks, and people trying to get to MyBroadband from certain networks could have trouble getting to the site.

We have asked our host to see if it can mitigate the attacks without affecting so many of our international readers.
