aq.org down

[beowabbit]

EDIT: By the time I finished posting that, it was back up, oddly enough. We’ll see how long that lasts, though.

Hi. My home net (and therefore all mail to @aq.org addresses) is down. I lost net yesterday afternoon for a while; my ISP determined that it was Covad’s problem (their ISP) and reprovisioned the line, which fixed things until this morning, but it’s down again.

(Making this even more fun is that I also have had no cellphone service since Sunday. I’m posting this through my *third* extremely cantankerous and unreliable connection to the Intenet, a Verizon router gizmo that doesn’t charge properly.)

When I have net again I think I need to make moving aq.org’s mail service to a colo box a high priority (in my copious free time).

In the meantime, you can get in touch with me via GMail (same login name as on LJ), although I can’t check that from home as frequently as usual.

At least my kittycat’s purrer is still working!

I was wondering about the intermittent and short-lived outages.

I've done a bit of research into varous colos in the last several months, and I can pass on what I've learned if you want it (though it won't help with the actual -moving- of aq).
