Can anyone access it?

I think a router died because my server isn't up now, and I cannot access www.plusweb.com :/

Anyone else having problems ?

I tried calling - it just kept ringing until I got "please enter your security code" message (?)

Thanks for posting an update WildWayz. You've just saved me having to make yet another international phonecall. ;) (although I doubt the debt ridden BT will be sending you a christmas card)

I hope this doesn't become a recurring problem. My server experiences 23 to 25 hours of downtime last week alone. It took 5 or 6 phone calls to straighten it out.

Needless to say, I'm becoming concerned.

My server was fine last week - has been ace the last month.

Anyway, their network is still down - can't email Jef cos obviously, his email is down. And it costs a lot to call the US from the UK. :/

If a router died, sure it is "swap it and whammo" :/

That 23 hours was in a row. It went down at 11:30 pm on friday night and didn't come back up til the following night. I've found them to be rather solid until recently.

I rebooted my server (not with plusweb/serverhost) and it did not come back up. I called my host and I was really worry/concern when my server still did not come back up after 20 minutes later (it come back up about 30 minutes after I contacted my host). Anyway, my point ... You do not need to wait 23-25 hours before you start to be concerned!

cheers,
:beer:

Ok, I admit it. I am very concerned. Good point. I think I'm too tolerant.

The company providing us with bandwidth at this point in time had a core switch failure. Unfortunately, our hands are tied until they fix the problem. I've been in continuous contact with them, and they promise to have the problem resolved shortly. We have ordered additional circuits for future expansion and redundancy, but many of the installations have been delayed for any number of reasons. We're having a spout of bad luck here, but we're working every day to correct these issues, and I know that quality of service will return to where it should be shortly. I apologize for any inconvenience.

As I said, since the server was fixed I have been VERY impressed with it.

Jeff, did you get my email I sent this morning (UK time) about billing?

Is there any ETA on this?

Any e-mails sent have not been recieved, because our servers are offline too. In the interim, you can e-mail me at jkehe@yahoo.com.
