Network upgrade

Network upgrade ~ 07/04/2011



We upgrading from 100mbit to a gigabit line on our Denver server (TC: Nova, STM and Liberator).


We thought that a 100mbit/sec line would be more than enough, but because of the way traffic is being calculated we are limited at 30 mbit/sec which we exceed with so many instances logged at the same time.
This upgrade will cost an extra $100 per month, so our server and maintenance costs are now $900.


Due to the network upgrade our IP needs to be changed, DNS has to be updated, etc. Liberator will experience a short downtime period. This downtime will allow our host to finish this network upgrade.



We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused you and we thank you for your patience.

Thank you.

Don't mention it!
If I wasn't such a bum I'd help with the cost in a heartbeat.
Haven't been here that long and I already realize from reading posts how committed some people are to a volunteer project.
