Strange Cox issues in California
by Jay Hennigan 05 Aug '10

05 Aug '10

I haven't been able to reach anyone with clue at Cox to resolve this, but over the last two days we have seen breakage of applications requiring UDP reported by Cox cable modem customers. ICMP ping also fails but web surfing works. Was a huge problem yesterday, came back for some customers but some are still affected. Most of our affected customers are in Santa Barbara. SIP and VPN customers are the most obviously affected. -- Jay Hennigan - CCIE #7880 - Network Engineering - jay(a)impulse.net Impulse Internet Service - http://www.impulse.net/ Your local telephone and internet company - 805 884-6323 - WB6RDV

Colocation in Belize

05 Aug '10

I'm looking for colocation in Belize for some equipment, but am having a bit of trouble finding anyone with significant carrier-neutral space there. Has anyone had any success in finding such space there? Off-list replies preferred. -- Brandon Galbraith Voice: 630.492.0464

Question of privacy with reassigned resources
by ML 05 Aug '10

05 Aug '10

As an SP in the MDU (multi dwelling unit) market we dutifully SWIP netblocks for each apartment complex/condo/etc. Doing such we publically publish the physical address an IP lives (sans Apt/Unit #). Would anyone feel this is too much information for people to know? Should our SWIPs be more generic, local POP address or local corporate office, just enough for rough geolocation accuracy? I realize what ARIN prefers, this is more of an opinion gathering. -ML

SingTel's your best bet but good luck with that unless you become a customer. I'm going to vote backbone traffic balancing by SingTel.
