Network connectivity problem ?
I'm located in UK, and I've tried connecting to host24.linode.com via 2 different Internet link - and same problem.
I wonder if anyone experiencing this as well ?
Thanks,
Harry

Tracerouting is fine up until the last hop when rtt goes from 80ms to 1200ms. I tried pinging host 19/20/21/22 and saw the same tjhing so I'd say it's a network issue.
Fingers crossed then that this will pass soon.

@sweh:
I opened a ticket short while ago about this.

I see the same thing on host 10, wrt ping times. I previously saw 1200ms, and now it is around 530, but also times out.
Here is a traceroute:

at any rate: ditto on network issues. host13 is definately suffering.
here's a traceroute for what its worth:
$traceroute host13.linode.com 38

I am on host 10 and getting the same issues.
Who's running the Pr0n servers?
@Clapper:
Count me in! host24.linode.com very spotty network performance. It will seem ok few a few moments, then appear to lock up completely.

Wasn't that you ??
Seriously, HE is supposed to have redundancies in their infrastructure - but this problem is not the first. If I recall correctly, phpbb.com was down due to power failure (and they're supposed to have their own backup power generator). Oh well…

What about everyone else?

where was chris during all of this? i guess there probably wasn't anything he could do other than bitch out HE.
edit: check out this
cheers, HS
I am very disappoint with quality of HE network. This morning network issue (US-EST) was not the first time that HE datacenter makes many of us unable/slow to access our box. I think Chris have to talk with HE more seriously about these happened issues.
I am not looking for a credit back to my account for network blackout. I just simply want to access my box 24/7 and I understand these issues beyond Chris's control. However, many of us run important services on Linode. The blackout issue must be minimized by our provider (in this case HE)
I do not know about the other datacenter (like ThePlanet) has the same problem (blackout every month for 3-4 hours) or not?
Hope my request is not "too much" for what we are paying for?
Cheers,

After I was notified of the network problems, I had contacted HE within just a few minutes (around 8:30AM EDT). There wasn't much I could do. From the report I later received from HE, it was a wide-spread DDoS attack that took them a while (?) to get under control…

ThePlanet has not had the same magnitude of issues. If I recall correctly, there was one problem almost a year ago due to a power cable being pulled accidentally by ThePlanet staff. It was a minimal outage as it's an easy thing to recover from. There may have been a single network outage issue also months and months ago, I can't recall. But outages at ThePlanet are definitely not a monthly, or even bi-yearly, occurrance.
I'm kinda dissappointed in what I've read about HE, especially considering that I was fond of them as I hosted my first website from an account with them in like 1998 and had a great experience at the time. They even sent me a Christmas card which I thought was nice. But I'm really glad that my Linode is at ThePlanet (started on host5 at ThePlanet, now on host31 at ThePlanet).
