Freeserve?
Shurely shome mishtake?
Several of Cable and Wireless' large corporate customers were booted offline on Moday night when its Leeds data centres fell to an unlikely double cable break. The two breaks were more than 100 miles apart, in the Northampton and Runcorn areas. They cut off two data centres Cable and Wireless picked up when it bought Energis …
Ah so that's what happened did wonder why orange.net / .co.uk and it's user webspace / ftp system disappeared totally.. I mean I actually used the free webspace they gave away to put up a site, that was before the "ads" webspace they now do came about.
It was a tad annoying but I suppose totally outwith Orange's control. I've read so much bad press about them I can't say I've had any problem with them but then again I don't got a live box...
when GXNetworks (pipex) point of presence in leeds had scaffolding built up next to it blocking their wireless signal (that'll learn em!!!)
causing them to pay out on SLA's! :)
a single point of failure is a bad idea guys, in this instance you didnt have enough network resilience.......but of course higher management always scoff at the idea of spending money before a disaster happens!
but thats jut the thing, because they use linked nodes to shove traffic around the country, you would think they would have more than just one other backup link
a company has two connections one for failover , blah blah
but the service provider should rather have more fo a grid rather than just point to point lines, but I am sure thats just asking too much :)
it wasnt long after the GXnetworks event, that the decline of (pipex) began
pipex was of course gxnetworks having bought pipex keeping the brand.
a lot of companies lost a lot of money over that couple of days.
I know people need to keep costs down, but like I keep telling DR managment meetings, the biggest cost is when something fails.
it was unlucky though ........ almost too unlucky (the 2x outages I mean)
Probably installing a fibre optic splitter box to facilitate phishing....... which would be something similar to "Lies and deceit" ... By Bill Loney Posted Wednesday 2nd July 2008 11:20 GMT.
Um the reason why fiber can be secured line is because the moment you splice into it some knows. Plus its not a five minute job. You need the proper tools. So if some did splice into the line and they didn't notice they should be shut down
but surely they have the back up of wireless as thats their name obviously or is this just an example of misleading advertising?
Oh and btw, I am definitely convinced that amanfrommars is a bot because its sentence structure is non existent and looks like those dodgy pharmacy mails and has taken to just copy and pasting on some occasions.
