  • Just as you posted this, i got the email from UptimeRobot saying my VPS is down :D
    I can SSH however (its very slow) so i'm gonna say network problems/DDoS attack

  • Quoted from the pony himself.

    Someone decided to pound our primary router. Give us a bit to adjust around it :)

  • Yeah, my VPS with them just shit the bed.

    buyvmstatus.com is showing a big chunk of their nodes down, and a few minutes ago it was even worse. I'm wondering if their DC had a hardware failure or something.

    offline site +packet loss= DDoS. We will see if their protection will hold.
    Or maybe they move to east coast...

    When people can't drop a site they try going after a router :)

    Our router IP to egi was getting slammed with what they claim was a 10Gbit flood. I still think the figure is 100% inaccurate but I saw 2Gbit at least.

    I'm making some changes to our BGP session with them to see what we can come up with to put an end to that little 'issue'

    I got a pretty good idea of who it was :)

    Aldryic only talks on WHT some and mostly IRC so it wasn't related to him. It was all on me probably ;)

    And no problemo. I left you a PM on WHT as well.

    @Francisco - just curious, what router do you use there? About to buy one.

    Vyatta like a boss.

    We don't have multiple 10Gbit runs or things like that, so we just do a decent spec'd box with vyatta.

    Thanks everyone and I apologize about that.
