It is spreading and verified by many folks that the network line that the RackShack pipe taht the customers are on (Gig-E) is experiencing a Massive DoS attack!

It's sad.. You pay and your dedicated server comapny get's a massive DoS. Nothing in place to stop it!

From what I see this is all hearsay and explain to me exactly how you can verify that they are being DoSed without actually being on the routers to see the inbound packets?

Click on Time-Warner graph.. From what everyone is saying. Which I believe.

The RackShack staff has just released the announcement.. It is official. It's a DoS attack from inside the RS network.

Well Jeff just said it is an internal DDOS attack (which has nothing to do with the time warner link)

I am surely not a RackShack Fan but if this is true then it sucks. Even the worst host does not deserve this! :(
