Dallas Network Dallas offline

Our DDoS protected Dallas network is currently offline due to an issue on CosmicGuard's side, we are talking to them.

  • It has since become known that Cloudflare is currently performing large-scale maintenance in many of their locations, their Dallas location went completely offline for the period we were offline, so this explains why we saw an outage. There was likely something that went wrong on Cloudflare's side in another of their locations that somehow then impacted Dallas, CosmicGuard is setup to automatically fail us over to another of their locations in the event of BGP routes being pulled - something that Cloudflare did not do in Dallas for an unknown reason. CosmicGuard will be talking to Cloudflare about this in the hope of avoiding a repeat.

  • Dallas came back online at 08:40 UTC. CosmicGuard has been using Cloudflare Magic Transit recently to help absorb the large attacks that DDoS mitigation providers are being hit with nowadays, 20Tb/s+. Unfortunately Cloudflare suffered a connectivity issue to CosmicGuard in Dallas, which resulted in traffic being blackholed, essentially dropped. CosmicGuard is currently investigating with Cloudflare why this happened, to hopefully prevent a repeat. We apologise for the inconvenience caused.

    Seattle Network Elevated latency to China

    We're currently seeing significantly elevated latency and some packet loss to China from our Seattle network when routing outbound via AS4837. This is caused by a fiber cut in China Unicom's network in San Jose, this should be resolved soon.

    Our CMIN2 network is unaffected apart from a small latency increase.

  • This was partially resolved as of 06:26 UTC, lately will still be elevated by 20ms but should decrease shortly.

    Seattle Network Elevated latency to China

    We're currently seeing significantly elevated latency and some packet loss to China from our Seattle network when routing outbound via AS4837. We suspect there is a fiber cut in China Unicom's US network in the San Jose area, this should be resolved soon.

    Our CMIN2 network is unaffected apart from a small latency increase.

  • This was partially resolved at 10:18 UTC and fully resolved at 11:11 UTC.

  • It has been confirmed there is major fiber cuts in the San Jose area (where we connect to China Unicom), no current estimated fix time. We checked alternative routes but they all had higher packet loss, although lower latency. We will consider switching routes if this carries on for much longer.

    Seattle Network Poor performance to China - AS4837

    Since 5am UTC, we've seen a large increase in latency and packet loss on the AS4847 network. We can see that other hosting providers using AS4837 are also impacted meaning it's likely a fiber cut or router issue on China Unicom's side at fault. We hope this will be resolved quickly.

  • This has now been resolved as of 12:10 UTC.
