    Rob is aware of the issue. He will not be able to repair it for 2 or 3 hours.

    Thank you Shawn! It's back up for now!

    I HATE change. This never was a problem until I upgraded the site to the latest version of PHPBB...

    Growing pains!

    I will monitor it and do my best to resolve the issues as they pop up.

    We are down again thanks to ATT and their crappy modem.

    To be fair I did jump the gun and I cut over the DNS because everything was stable but the new fiber modem is blocking all inbound web, DNS and FTP traffic... pretty much everything.

    I'm on the phone right now trying to fix it!

    the main HOST records are resolving so as soon as this firewall issue is resolved then everything should come back up rather quickly as DNS will be allowed to propagate!

    Live and learn. I'll N-E-V-E-R make that mistake again....

    Growing pains I guess for a 1GB/600+M fiber to the rack internet connection.

    We are back up!

    I reverted back to the old line for now. The new modem is crap. Need a different one!

    Well it's down again. Gotta give Rob credit. He sure as heck tries. Doubt I'd be able to deal with it. I'd be telling everyone to use face book or somethig.

    Shoot, I figured that he knew and has been working on it. Just thought I'd pop it up here at least just in case.

    Back up now.

    Thank GOD for backups... We are restored back to 3:10AM this morning.

    That was the scariest thing I've EVER had to deal with my ENTIRE life... It further solidifies my backup methods which I have deployed.

    WOW
