Anyone having network slowdowns?

[mikerosati]

Is anyone else out there having a bit of congestion getting to TX tonight? Things are slowing way down this evening..

[Vin DSL]

Yeah, everything is kinda sucky!

I noticed that my site, which is getting 40k-50k pageviews a day, lately, is crawling the last few hours. Dittos for JagPC.

In MY case, it turned out to be mostly a bad RSS feed, but I figure it's all network related too, in view of recent outages the last couple of weeks ... so...

[Vin DSL]

Did that make any sense?

I think JagPC is experiencing network difficulties lately, but it's probably totally out of their control. It's probably a problem with their various providers.

I've saw this happen years ago, when a single flakey router in UUNET slowed down the whole east coast for weeks...

[Vin DSL]

Heh! I know... what's UUNET?

General overview.

Slow response from TX to TX for the past 2 hours.

Slow as hell to Boston

50% packet loss, must be another DDOS attack?

50% packet loss, must be another DDOS attack...

Very astute!

looks like they already fixed it

sites are loading fine now

[muks]

By the way, before I posted the ping reply I filed a ticket and guess what they said

We have updated your online support ticket.

We are facing a network issue due to a severe ddos. We are working on it and will fix it soon. Thank you for your co-operation in this regard."

Heh! I had a 26% packet loss the first time I pinged the server. I just kept running 'em until the timeouts went away...

Sorry! Warped sense of humor...

[Vin DSL]

BTW, I wonder who's been getting hammered?!?!?

Seems like we've had a lot of syn attacks lately...

[Eric]

There was an outgoing UDP flood that caused some problems last night and I apologize for not posting earlier about it. We have taken steps on most servers to avoid these types of attacks, but some servers were either missed or in this case, a vps instance, which is harder to control.
