              going on 6 hours down now.

              It's really sad, I know they are having issues with their move, but how can I pay my bills if my sites aren't up?

              I can smell the blacklists already.

                Nedder,
                Make that: "I can smell ignorant (not worth dealing business with) people blacklisting me."...

                Ya it's a long downtime, but I think that this time it's not prohosters. Would they let their whole system go down for that many hours. I believe it has something to do with the backbone. I mean I can't access my email, my site, their IRC support, their own site so this smells like backbone... Or not? Anyway I am gonna stay with those hosting companies who offer GOOD 24/7 IRC support. They do and that's what matters to me. I don't wanna hear how cheap someone is. When shit happens be there for me and answer my questions - that's what I want.

                If anyone knows anything about why this downtime post it here so we'll know who to thank for.

                      Well I can't even acces their page...so I hardly think they are doing this on purpose.

                      They have been great with customer service. I just wish I could know when things are back. I have been submitting tons of sites and really dont want to have them all pulled because of this.

                      However theyhave been very good so I will wait before I jump ship.

                      Howevr...if any of you own link lists that I have submitted to..please be kind

                            My sites have been fine until now. What story have they been telling for a week?

                            I just checked some old emails and I have the following phone numbers. They may be their accounts department.

                            302.462.1232 or 302.275.5408

                            I would call but #1 its very long distance for me and #2 the other phone line is in use.

                              None of them are online but you can try later. And my site is finally working again; I'll keep an eye on it.

                                    Well if they told you its Verio thats down well thats a good try...

                                    I dont know but were on verio and we have had no problems at all to date. Anyhow we offer the works uptime server and above all customer satisfaction. We may be cheap but thats our choice not because we skimp on service or have bad uptime.

                                    How can you go wrong with a 5 day free trial?

                                      My sites are back up. I've had service interrupted longer at mainstream companies in the past.

                                      On another note, I wouldn't have very much confidence in a company that trolls these messages looking to pick up small accounts.

                                      I guess any domains pointing to prohosters' nameservers will be blacklisted everywhere now... :P

                                        well it wasn't like we were having our sites redirected some circle jerk. They were just down. If someone blacklists you just because they couldn't conect to it then they aren't being very sensible.

                                          I think someone should post this message sent by prohosters:





                                          Dear Customer:

                                          Here is the timetable for the downtime that occurred today: (EST)

                                          12:00 PM Verio Dropped Internet Connection for entire DataCenter
                                          12:10 PM Pro Hosters staff dispatched on site

                                          02:00 PM VERIO believes the issue to be a problem with BGP routes
                                          03:00 PM VERIO trouble shooting issue
                                          04:00 PM VERIO now believes issue to be related directly to Pro Hosters
                                          possibly an attack of some sort.
                                          04:30 PM VERIO has solved problem it was a CISCO bug in the rate
                                          limiting
                                          code affecting both of ProHosters interfaces to verio
                                          other customers up in DataCenter, Pro Hosters passing
                                          minimal traffic
                                          05:00 PM Pro Hosters trouble shoots issue and finds that it is not of
                                          their
                                          network in anyway and is a VERIO issue alerts VERIO of this.
                                          Pro Hosters belives the problem to be a misplaced access list
                                          on the
                                          interface.
                                          06:00 PM Pro Hosters works with VERIO to debug issue with Pro Hosters
                                          conn.
                                          VERIO blames Pro Hosters equipment. ProHosters insists it's a
                                          bad
                                          access list.
                                          07:00 PM VERIO confirms it as a bad access list on their switch and
                                          fixes
                                          the issue.
                                          07:15 PM ProHosters notices some ips are going to random places calls
                                          VERIO and VERIO fixes issue with a static route misplaced on
                                          interface.

                                                When I posted prohoster´s message, I thought it was better if each one had their own conclusions.

                                                After a second thought, I decided to post my opinion on this episode:
                                                Prohosters was not to blame for the problem; as usual, they did their best to solve the problem; they got a credit from verio and passed it on to all the customers; customers got one month free in compensation for a few hours down.

                                                I have no intention to move from Prohosters right now.

                                                          I'm sticking my moderate traffic AVS/search engine stuff on them, but I'm not going to do any more TGP until I'm shown that these problems are taken care of.

                                                          I honestly appreciate them keeping their customers informed of who is to blame in these situations, but the bottom line is that we lost service at that time while other hosts did not. I don't care who is to blame, all I know is that when my sites are not up I'm not making money.

                                                          On their side, however, I've had these problems with every host I've tried so far, so maybe I've got a gold standard.
