www.dirtcheapwebservers.com down??
I have a dedicated server setup with them. But have been looking for the past 10 minutes, and the ips that i have been allotted have been down. Even their site seems to be down. I tried pinging both of them, but keeping on getting timed out message.
Is it only from my end or is it truely dead? Any other way to contact them?

Down from Switzerland too. I didn't bother to call them, I think they know about and they are doing their best. Robb is very responsive and I think something went wrong with their DC.

Just a quick update
I went through the whois info of dirtcheapwebservers.com and found that they are with INNERQUEST Networks LLC. Then when you go to their website at http://www.innerquestusa.com it shows that all of their network is down. The reason that they have put up says
We are currently experiencing network outages due do a fiber cut in the "Tampa Bay Area". We apologize for the unconvinced.

Yes, I hope too... but they could elaborate a bit. We have 20 hours downtime with the servers we have with them but no single email.

I hope it would be solved soon, This again gave me a lesson, never trust a small company for business.... Not acceptable.

I wonder if they are still in business. We have 3 servers with them but only one that host a customer. We provided a high end server to this customer.
Whocares, don't hesistate to contact me if I can help you.

Network Outage?
Hi all,
My host [ dirtcheapwebservers ] has been down for over 44 hours now. ( every site I know that is hosted on them is down including their own site )
I'm not entirely sure where the datacenter is located but if anyone happens to know could you please post it. It would be nice to know whether the datacenter is having problems or whether my "host" has gone out of business.
Maybe I'm overreacting but 44 hours seems like quite a long time for all their sites to be down.

Do a spotcheck from alertra is showing them as up. I noticed their IP is in the 72.x.x.x range, you may want to contact your ISP as there have been a lot of trouble with this IP range lately.

Their site is now up as a generated ad site (possibly from registrar)
http://www.dirtcheapwebservers.com/ @ 63.251.83.53
Hope they didn't go out of business...

We rented a VPS for our customer. I have no choice than to consider them out of business. 30 hours downtime without any kind of email or announcement, is too much.

May be we need to start a thread in a most read part of this forum. The question is no longer about provider outage, my question is: www.dirtcheapwebservers.com dies?
