Wow Verio went down. - GoFuckYourself.com

justsexxx · 07-03-2002, 12:19 AM

Hi,

I saw that Verio went down, what does that mean exactly. I mean does that mean all routes that went through Verio are down? Or is it just a part of Verio what is down then? Sorry I have no idea how it works exactly

( I saw that because my site went down for 1 minute, and picked up another route, because I'm multihomed)

and you whine about cogent?

justsexxx · 07-03-2002, 12:38 AM

Lol I didn't whine that much over Cogent. Only that they update the lines often, so small downtimes are the results.

But again, only Verio is not good too(but better then Cogentco) that's why I'm multihomed

Cable and Wireless took itover for me

Don't know exactly, because other BW picked it up for me.
But thought small downtime, like 5 minutes or so.

I think they're updating because when I looked it was up and down again for a few minutes.

Comparing cogent to verio is like comparing a BMW M3 to a Hyundai Tiburon.

Yeah, both of them will have problems sometimes, but the problem with cogent is, wether they are up or down, they suck. 90% of their routes range from "bad" to "very bad", whereas 90% verio's routes range from "good" to "bad".

clickpimp · 07-03-2002, 02:46 AM

the biggest difference between Cogent and Verio is peering.

Verio/NTT have it, Cogent doesn't so they bought Netrail and still suck.

What carrier is going to look at Cogent's 90/10 outbound/inbound bandwidth ratio and accept a peering realtionship? Answer, none.

Shit, the price ain't even that different. If you buy in ISP quantity, you can get Cogent for $30/Mbps and Verio for $50/Mbps.

justsexxx · 07-03-2002, 03:29 AM

But still no answer

what goes down, when a network goes down? I mean the cables are still there

Sorry about the downtime, I had to reboot.

jimmyf · 07-03-2002, 05:41 AM

I've been getting emails from Verio about, moving servers and such... I didn't pay that much attention to them... all said I would not be down but a few Min.'s...
Verio is dam big...

router, switch,server.... bug in os.. power surge could cause it
even though they have all kinds of portection for this.. I've
seen it get Thru... shit 100's of things... Power back up kicks
in and sends a surge....

MrBandwidth · 07-03-2002, 10:54 AM

Might have been a telco problem on your side of town...Verio as a whole was not down...certain areas may fail because of hardware issues, telco issues, etc.

Brad Mitchell · 07-03-2002, 12:12 PM

No Verio outages here... I've had them as my provider for about 6 months and I haven't had downtime yet. I think a better comparison for Verio and Cogent is more like comparing a Volvo to a Yugo. If you go to Boardwatch.Com and look at the provider ratings Verio's network is rated as one of the fastest and most reliable.

Mr. Fiction... Give me a call!

Brad

MrBandwidth · 07-03-2002, 12:27 PM

I hear there is some outstanding bandwidth pricing from them (Cogent-style) in Detroit and Miami

If anyone's interested, let me or Brad from SinEmpire know!

Yea, they are one of the few who dumped ATM and use only IP over SONET...and having no voice shit on their network helps a ton too...
