Default Server Performance

Good evening

For those wondering the intermittent unavailability of our server this evening appears to have been caused by a denial of service attack launched against our service provider in their Phoenix data centre which is where our server lives.

At the moment service would seem to be restored.

Regards
Russ

Default Re: Server Performance

Unfortunately I wouldn't know the difference.
It always takes these pages 24~45 seconds to load. Can't figure out why.
Seems to be some breakdown in communication between some ISPs and Comodo.

It's a bit of a left field suggestion but I note that Comodo uses an IPV6 IP address and some ISP's may not have fully implemented IPV6 as yet given the take-up rate has been slow. This could be exacerbated for those recent NBN customers who also are now being given IPV6 addresses.

You could try adding the Comodo address to your Windows hosts file
