Update at 16:32:15(GMT): The issues now seem to be resolved.

---

Update at 14:17:47(GMT): One of our upstream transit providers, Above.net, have informed us that the issues with LINX should now be resolved.

The current theory is that a broken port on one of their switches was causing the disruption.

Any customers still experiencing issues they believe to be related are encouraged to contact support to aide in debugging.

---

Customers should please be aware that one of the largest and most popular Internet peering exchanges, LINX, are having severe issues with one of their network switches.

Whilst 34SP do not directly take any peering connections via LINX, our upstream transit providers do and so do many of the ISPs that our customers utilise.

Because of this, certain customers are experiencing slow or lossy connections to our network. This is out of our control.

At present we're trying to collect as much information as possible from our customers in the vague hope that we may be able to improve things indirectly.

Our support operatives are not able to perform any action bar gathering information.

Please ensure that you have tested other websites across the Internet, thoroughly (although this is not an exact metric due to the way that routing and peering work between ISPs) and, if necessary, ensure that your own Internet Service Provider is aware of the issue.

Customers using the Windows-based Personal hosting service, Gambit, may have noticed that e-mails to their mailboxes are being denied with a code related to a storage failure.

This is in fact not caused by a lack of disk space, but by a few corrupt database tables that the mail server uses for tracking incoming e-mail.

We're repairing the tables now and hope to resume service shortly.
