The last time we went down was due to PEQ overheating, and I assume this time is the same issue. Last time I spoke with FNW he says he was told we aren't alone, and that many of the servers in the new building are having similar issues. Real good for business, eh?
The solution is real simple, FNW has to contact our ISP and request a reboot. But, he is currently away (not sure whether it is business or for the holidays) so that is the reason for the delay. Hopefully, he and I can also come up with a plan to prevent downtime like this in the future when he does come back.
So, just hold tight.  |
The AC problem probably stems from the fact that normal AC units aren't menat to run in colder weather (which I'm assuming the building is currently located in an area that is colder right now) my uncle does some HVAC and the normal AC units run on freon which is used for the cooling, and freon's natural tendency is to go towards the colder air despite all the pumps and everything trying to make the unit work, so my guess is the AC units aren't working for that reason, or something, I don't really know how to fix that issue but yeah :P
