Update on tech problems...
As everybody's noticed by now, we've been having technical problems since about last Friday. The problem's not with Rantburg, nor with our hosting service, but with Verizon, which is the actual internet carrier. There have been two extended outage periods where they were trying to isolate where the problem lay, and lots of 2-4 minute outages which were the symptoms of the problem. They think they've got it now, though they also thought they had it before, so we'll see.Velocity, where our server lives, is contracting with a second company to provide another internet connection, which will provide a redundant route. They're going to be testing it in two weeks, and then bringing it online as soon as the testing's done. That should provide close to 100 percent access, unless the building's flooded or something. I'll keep you updated if anything changes. Posted by: Fred 2005-10-19 |
