LikeWhoa Down?
 

allliquid/likewhoa isn't loading for me :( anyone else having this problem

Down for me.

Yeah it's kindof slow -- I ICQ'd them -- they said they were on the phone w/ Verio to get it fixed...

they just told me they have routing problems with Verio and are using now the backup Qwest/UUnet connections

likewhoa's name servers are not responding very quickly at all. i suspect their backup link w/ np1 is hurtin:

is np1.net == likewhoa or just a customer of qwest? it doesn't look like a direct connect to qwest but i could be mistaken.

Wow, I don't think there backup is working all that well:

What's np1.net some sort of DSL provider?

ah...fuck. why the fuck am I signing up for such service.

salsbury it looks like np1 is a customer of qwest and likewhoa just buys from them ... I was under impression they had multiple providers like whoa sux go with sextracker or something

well, shit can happen to anyone, i'd wait to see what happens here and for an explanation before jumping ship, personally. tho its always nice to have backup providers if you can afford it.

how about cavecreek

how about 'em? what?

This is a tad annoying -- 3 gigabit connection with backups shouldn't have any lag even if one goes down.

That's what they claim they have, who knows what they have in what we call the real world. :)

my host is down/slow too - he says "router problem"

FUCK

:BangBang: Terrorists !!

what's your host?

Verio bandwidth sucks... It's only a little better than Cogent... Not Tier-1.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Check Keynote.

Check the Matrix reports.

You are a crack head.

Bullshit.

FuckFace,

Ask a Tier-1 provider WHO the real Tier-1 providers are and you will learn that Verio is not.

Nuff said.

Free range Bullshit.

VERIO is Tier 1 most definately. There is no one that they buy an Upstream connection from, flat out

There is a general net congestion problem concerning traffic that has to be routed through NY right now. If you took a look at the amount of video & data coming through and from here as a result of the 9/11 mularkey you could understand why. It's pure bedlam here so almost everyones routers and switches are being taxed.

It's taking me 1000% longer to load every page on my end. It will pass as these news services get the fuck outta town tommorrow.

Moron,

I am seeing under 2ms transversing every major backbone in NYC. Verio, Qwest, C&W, UU, ATT, BBN, ALGX. If you are having problems, it is likely either your individual ISP having problems, or the ISPs of the sites you want to load having problems (less likely if you hare having mass problems). All the major news sites load up real nice and quick for me, and I'm in downtown nyc.

i wouldn't think net congestion would cause verio to stop announcing likewhoa's routes though, unless verio's routers are having trouble. verio's usually better about getting things like this fixed faster, but i guess everyone can have a bad day.

Its not like whoa.
All Verio providers are having problems right now.

And I love the comments on Cogent Vs. Verios bandwith.

Hehehe. Too funny.

If you see a Benz with a flat tire on the side of the road while driving buy in your Kia, I bet you tell the wife how the Kia is way better than that Benz to make yourself feel better.


You go Boy!

No, its looks like an internal problem with LikeWHoa because the hoting company that hosts them, np1.com, is reachable. So, its not Verio.

http://np1.com/

does that mean KIA is a shitty car ?

You never know who's using who's pipes and what for. My ISP is obviously having problems but if thats the case then I imagine it's possible for other companies as well. The News services are all hosted out in other locations. The congestion or overload would come from the oversubscription of private IP traffic which is different from just plain ol website hosting. Several international news services are using that as a way to relay their video feeds. All of this is originating from the same building Like Whoa is hosted in hence the busy routers & switches.

it's oFFicaL

Choker h/-\Cke:> 'em!

No it doesnt mean Kia is a shitty car. And Cogent is not Shitty Bandwith either. But Verio and Benz are in a seprate class alltogether.

it looks to me like other verio providers are just fine. which ones do you see having problems w/ verio?

prohosters... no problems
sextracker... no problems
sinhost... no problems

all through verio. likewhoa can't be seen through verio right now, though.

actually yeah ya do.. it's all public information. it has to be for the internet to even work. routers and switches that are in the same building can't affect likewhoa unless likewhoa is using those same routers/switches as everyone else - seems very unlikely ya know?

plus verio is not announcing a route for likewhoa.

I heard I can get a whole lot of girlies with this peice of equipment...

Put some 16 inch chrome rims on a Sephia and you are stylin!
Ya can't beat a car that you can buy with one Amateur Pages check!

You could have all the networks loaded into one building or 20 buildings and it wouldnt make a difference since not everyone in the building runs off one router.

me likes this one

ALL my trades are dying a slow death.


:Oh crap

I think the Kia is our generation's Yugo. Anybody here old enough to remember this...

http://www.automobile-riekmann.com/m...autos/yugo.jpg

I wasn't old enough to drive back then but I remember all the teens in the neighborhood riding around in these.

Back then they cost $4,000 new! This was like '84 or so.

Now if you take that $4,000 and adjust it for inflation you could buy one of these...

Same shitty car, different decade!

kia is way better than Yugo!
Some of the SUV and upper models are actually pretty good man!

I have a Yugo and it still runs.:winkwink:

gets me from A-B and the girls luv it when I cruise Sunset

it's not verio, mach 10 is still up w/ zero problems

Thats not true bro. It is just an isolated problem with LikeWhoa because the hosting company that hosts them, np1.com, is up and running. So, its not Verio.

http://np1.com/


Also, how come we hear about Like Whoa being spammers all the time when their trying to sell their service, but now you dont hear a peep from them??.....:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Hi guys,

Can anybody tell me approx. how long it's been down? Hours, half hour, 20 minutes?

Going on or close to 3 hours now I believe.

Edit: Actually, closer to 4 hours is what the count is.

uh oh...

Problems started at 2h45 EST

Can we know what is the exact problem please?

Are the times on this thread correct? These problems started at 12am and are still going on now (i.e. LikeWhoa has not returned to Verio routing)?

Rik

Okay. answered my own question. GFY is on GMT.

Could happen to anyone, I guess.

Rik

My kia is much better than my old cogent bandwidth was. Nor is verio in a class much above a nissan at this point.

I didn't even get an e-mail my sites were down... I have no problems with hosts going down once in awhile but I like to be kept updated on the situation.
