Re: Slow

Appears to be an issue between Optus and Vocus, the backbone provider that services the data centre Silver Stackers is hosted in. Whirlpool has a thread on current problems with Optus and speeds - looks like an Optus network issue for now. Beyond my control.

Re: Slow

Slow as. Used downforeveryoneorjustme and it said it was down so I'm sure it's not an optus issue.

Every day, give a gift to everyone you meet.

Not a formal, wrapped-up present - make it something personal, something that means something, something genuine. Your gift can be your smile, a word of thanks or encouragement, a gesture of politeness, even a friendly nod.

I also ran downforeveryoneorjustme.com.au and got "Down for everyone" @12:28 [I'm on Optus cable fwiw, Mac 10.6.8, Safari 5.1.5]

I have also noted much laggedness over the past several weeks - most of the time the site hums along but every now and then just stalls for a few minutes (say 10 mins max) then just zooms along again as if nothing happened.

Re: Slow

Agreed.  The website is really slow at times and even times out.

Whoever is hosting seems to be having issues GP.  Still happening today

Re: Slow

On the phone right now with Optus - the host is blaming network issues.

Starting to doubt it.

Re: Slow

Can anyone who is having timeout issues confirm if they are NOT on the Optus network? Crucial to find out to help resolve this.

Re: Slow

1) Go to Start (start button on the lower left of the desktop)
2) Choose 'Run'
3) Type: "cmd" (no quotes)
4) This should bring up a DOS prompt. Once there, type: tracert "website" (without quotes)

1st = you
2nd = provider

Re: Slow

Ok, been told that the tracert isn't the issue - could simply be hitting the wall on server resources again.

ANOTHER hosting upgrade.

Dang - if it does that when we're quiet, what will you do when "silver goes to da moon" .... wink

[Oops meant to say, I'm on Optus Naked via Internode and it's fast right now, tiny bit laggy earlier on today, but not causing me issues and hasn't been over the last few days. Maybe the server needs a reboot & a good flushing. I know that does me good sometimes wink]

Re: Slow

Currently slow again - support tickets raised with the host, I'm starting to think it's simply congestion on their servers, not specific to Silver Stackers.

Re: Slow

It's definitely a hosting issue, they think they've found a root cause and are working to resolve.
