FDCSERVERS.NET DOWN AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!

The site doesn't seem to work, but my server seems ok. :)

yeah, confirming their site is down + my server.

Seems everytime I start to think of my 'association' with fdcservers in a positive way, something happens to make me change my mind. :(

Just tonight, I tought that my pings/packet loss were back to acceptable levels and see what happened!

Well, my server's still working.

It'll be nice when they add that Yipes feed in September to make Cogent multi-homed.

yup its a fdcserver problem because a friend of mine has a box with them and its down but another friend has one in the same noc and its up..

EDIT: well unless kingcmp is apart of fdcservers im not sure..

Since its just part of their datacenter, its probably a switch or something like that, cause my box works fine....speeds seem to be pretty normal (although, I just got my box yesterday).

uhuh! Back to their old ways :)

I'm sure bummer6666 will be on here blaming someone else soonish

hey hey, what's this about a yipes line + multi-homed?

i had heard they would never add anything other than cogent.

wahey. not too shabby if they keep the pricing. hopefully it works out well and they clear this problem up soon.

Not shabby at all. I heard pretty good things about their Cogent lines (compared to others) which made me feel better about the Cogent-only network, and them adding Yipes made my decision even easier.

Hopefully they'll get this little problem fixed soon. I hate to see these kinds of problems. :rolleyes:

i hate hearing about the problems also, and i hate it more that it seems to be on my subnet. but, you know, it happens, just, hopefully it will not happen often in the future.

i've actually been really happy with the speeds from europe on the cogent lines since starting with them.

Does'nt seem to be a cogent problem. Out of my 3 servers there, 2 are working fine, but 1 is down.

Their own website seems to be intentionally switched OFF from the Plesk Server Administrator.

oh no, wasn't saying it was a cogent problem. i've been really happy with them so far, just, don't like this current downtime. but, you know, it happens.

Sites back up.....what about you guy's servers?

I have a box there... still dead as of 2:30AM PST

mine came back up within the last 30 or so minutes. nice and fast too. i can dig a 163ms trip from europe. :)

Yep, it's up

Nice way to impress customers, no spell check on their main page ?~?

yes, up...

wtf kinda site is that?

well, i shouldn't have spoken so soon. heh.

ping times on that network are high now... the servers themselves are 80ms higher than the previous hop (kingcomp/fdc router)... so somethin' messed... heh... feed overloaded probably... heh

things have been back to normal for me for abit now and my speeds are great from europe.

it is cuz u r on a different ethernet segment... cuz one of my servers is normal... the others are not

Mine is also UP. Inspite of ups and downs, I have found they "FDCservers" are the best.... rather most co-operative.

No complaints.;)

5 hours now, rock on.

well i'd say their problem is, that they'r not running BGP, and just add new lines for new segments each time the old ones get overload ... but if one of the lines fail, then one of the segment will be down. very simple, eh? ;-)
well i was very tempted about giving their offer a shot too ... but i'm having the same experience as prime :/

They're not running BGP?
Wow.


Anyways... it's been 6 hours, and I just noticed they redesigned the site.. looks nice, but it doesn't help me any.

well, afaik, they aren't.

i've been up for awhile now. i'm very very pleased with fdc since i've been with them (which hasn't been very long, so, i can't really give a glowing review yet). however, the speeds are better than i've had in awhile (with servers on yipes, aleron, and sprint).

but i am back up and running strong at the moment and quite happy with fdc (can i say it again?).

but, the idea of a bgp4 cogent/yipes route for the same price i'm getting now is a nice one.

It's too bad they don't have an SLA...

AFAIK, they don't even guaruntee 1% uptime.

skylab, how long have you had a server there?

If you want, I can share my experiences with them over AIM/ICQ/whatever.

I've been with them for a bit now.

DOWN AGAIN.....

It does charitable filehosting for some sites, most notably http://halo.bungie.org.

For what it's worth, that box doesn't appear to have been down recently (at least, not due to any problems on KingComp's end). It's been down a bit as I've tried to work on a problem with manifested itself after a big bandwidth spike -- the switch the box is hooked into at KingComp doesn't respond that it's capable of 100base-TX operation anymore when my NIC tries to autonegotiate with it, so the box is only connected at 10mb/sec now. :(

Well, i've been down for 12 hours.

I was told the network problems were corrected and that it was specific to my server...

anyone else still down?

nope .. last 9 hours its been fine

bummer6666 in another post
Yes there was a downtime earlier today on one older subnets, where we allow shell hosting where the router got DOSed and which affected about 30 servers.
It in no way affected any of our new circuits
