Hosting Issues!

I’ve been having some issues with my co-lo host, ukshells, over the past few days. The issue was the server would just lose connectivity. Every so often a ping packet would get though but nothing else. Weirdly the control panel provided by my hosting supplier would flicker between status’s, for example among other things, it would read the power port to be online and upon a refresh of the browser it would not know if its on or off. As this is all network based I suspect some form of DOS attack but don’t know many details.

Today I put a ticket in and it was fixed very quickly. Didn’t give to many details but appears to be caused by another customer on the same switch that my server is on. They have now been moved..

So uptime on Teamspeak etc should be a lot more stable now.
On a lighter note because it wasn’t a power issue the server has reached an uptime of 125 days.
