Website down Wed 14th Jan

Post by Webmaster »

Hi,

There were some issues (probably caused by me) yesterday. You may have noticed the website not loading or being intermittent. These problems also affected my remote access so I couldn't do anything about it while at work.

For the technically minded people, I tried changing the MTU on a router, it caused things to go weird so I changed it back only it continued acting weird afterwards until I rebooted the router (a machine running pfSense). Yep, turned it off and on again.

I also took the opportunity to do some updates while it was down so things weren't really back up and running again until around 7-8pm.

Sorry if this caused you any inconvenience.

Cheers.

The same machine caused some similar issues again today. Nothing out of the ordinary was changed so I'm wondering if it's a hardware fault (it's ancient).
