delays like such. Most recently IP's were a major issue than they
upgraded how they operate to IP(something or rather) ... IP2 or
something. Effected Web Hosts. I'm not quite clear exactly what all
this was but my web host was down for a considerable time because of it
and all my sites effected as people could not connect. Some were
upgraded on the fly some sites were down for weeks or more. My web host
was down for 11 days.Where do you live ?
No. You were handed a pile of lies, it's possible that a major line
recently was upgraded or repaired. Are you in New Zealand?

More likely your web host broke something badly and had to rebuild their
system(s). IPv6 is the next version of IP, and it's not full replacing
IPv4 anytime soon because coordinating the whole mess is cumbersome.
It's already in use in plenty of places, and they use it alongside IPv4
just fine.
Australia!I know, that the USA are realy underdeveloped (Broadband,...)
but broken DNS or such issues?
The USA is not really underdeveloped in this area, we are just too
widespread to have *really* fast pipes. Broadband has penetrated the US
quite fine and it's extremely easy to get fast always on connections
Tests were ran with certain domains. Most domains failed in Washington
area. But since these tests are not always accurate but I'd guess the
problem lays within a hop or something there. But how would I know in
Australia? > Another is I tried to load

Your DNS was broken, you still had a local cache of the sites you
frequently visit.
Not really. A person in Canada confirmed they were not able to view the
above site for the passed 3 days. I can view it now. Another person in
Americal could see it before but can't now despite the site being online
and the server active. It happens quite often this occourence.> This

your ISP what happen...
Again, DNS servers/issues. DNS changes can take a long while to
propogate. If your webhost was also your DNS host and their servers
went poof, it is possible some people had the lookup cached while some
didn't.
Email has no particular guaranteed delivery time, and backoff algorithms
differ - in addition to mail servers queuing mail up before sending. It
happens, mail isn't always as instant as we would like.
Why should I? Can't you see I am using Yahoo!? lol ... Nothing wrong
with my ISP currently. As they don't feed my emails, they just feed the
pages to check them. ;) > But it's great to see people interested if the

amen. hail to the list. :)
I think there has been 2 emails stating is the list active lately. But
none have confirmed www problems. > Michelle, go back to your little
box.Little Box ?
That's what they call a linux (of some description) O/S machine, a box.
it's just OS - it's an abbreviation, not O/S like O/S 2.
