The issue in Dallas has been affecting anyone under car4-1 and we have had to relocate our VoIP clients to another network in Chicago and cancel that server while demaining a 100% reimbursement of our fees per the 100% SLA coving that machine. In your hosting future I would suggest you use pingplotter when you have glitches that are hard to explain that are related to network connectivity. I wish you the best using their network but we were affected late last year when car11 had these same type issues. If you want cheap machines then TP/SM is the way to go...if you want stable networks then I'd look elsewhere. Remember the golden rule...."you get what you pay for". Just for the record...we still have several machines in their network, we just can't host our critical services there any longer.
GL to all affected...42 hours into the issue with no resolution. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [GS]BeNt Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2005 2:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] Server not showing up on network Ok update.For alittle background I am hosted at The Planet out of Dallas Texas. I did a Windows 2003 Service Pack update and the HLDS update the same day.Thats when all the issues started. Well finally tonight I got time to do full server reinstalls for my box.Which resolved everything but the lag spikes ect.The lag spikes where occuring anywhere from 20 seconds to 2 minutes in duration. Well I called the planet and they informed me that my box is behind a router than is being hammered due to network viruses and they are actively trying to solve the problem.So for anyone that is hosted with them that is whats going on if you didn't know.I was pulling my hair out trying to fix whatever was going on with the box.First I thought it was the steam update.Then I thought maybe the new service pack did it. And then I find out its on their end.Hopefully that opens up something for someone who is hosted where I am......
