Possible Downtime

Posted in Blogging / By /

This blog will be intermittently inaccessible until a server move has been completed tomorrow night. The new current dedicated server has been experiencing connectivity hiccups thanks to a certain monopoly’s total incompetence at maintaining hundreds of thousands or perhaps millions of ringgit worth of network equipment.

The server will be moving to a datacenter run by an infinitely more competent team tomorrow night, so bear with the lack of updates and difficulty to access until the move is complete. The media and video server remains at Jaring, which is run pretty well, despite being plagued by connectivity problems between their side and Streamyx occasionally, but I’m sure you can guess whose fault is that.

    u see paul… when i forgot to pay my streamyx bill, they immedietly cut off the internet connection. but when the internet was down for 4-5 days in a month, they didn't refund a single cent! (of the RM88, which is already a ridiculously amount for their quality of service). what the f*ck!!! just blowing off the steam here, huh!

    Apparently they were going to shutdown the servers at MyLoca for "power upgrades" but now, apparently not.

    As an administrator myself, this is infuriating.

    The worst I've got was my Corporate SDSL line that was down for a freaking 1 week. Actually tried calling the then CEO and got passed to the Head of CSR. At least got service at that level. Anything lower on the CSR food chain is garbage.

    If someone says 'you can really guess whose fault it is' I have to say I don't exactly know, what that means. I think it is Streamyx fault, I am an extremely disappointed customer there. Is Jaring better? I am done with Streamyx, any advice?
