Hinet.net/Asia-Taiwan outage?
Today around 5pm Central Time, everything from *.tw stopped responding. And hinet.net, (something like Asia's Abovenet), stopped responding. Does anybody know anything about this outage? P.S. I want to say that Hinet.net is extremely clueless. We've been crying for their routers to resolve for years, and they refuse to do it. In addition, the email/usenet spams, open relays, etc. from *.hinet.net official services are at absurdly high levels.. -- +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | keichii@peorth.iteration.net | keichii@bsdconspiracy.net | | http://peorth.iteration.net/~keichii | Yes, BSD is a conspiracy. | +------------------------------------------------------------------+

This cable goes to Japan/China/Taiwan/Hong Kong. Guess we won't have good cable connectivity for a few weeks....until they pull the cables off the sea floor and fix it. | P.S.
