Downtime

My web server was down for most of yesterday.  Apparently Comcast has finally taken over for Time Warner, as my IP address changed drastically.  Now that I have updated the DynDNS with my current IP, everything seems to be working fine.

what'd yours change to? I haven't noticed anything and I'm still a 24. address.

I'm in Olive Branch, so they are probably switching over regionally.

have you noticed any speed differences?

No, but I can't check browsing speed and such from work really. I'm having trouble finding a speed checker that runs in LYNX (or LINKS)...

Testing upload from several locations, Chicago and Detroit topped out at 125kbps (so I wouldn't be surprised if it's capped around there.)

Using my Mac remotely at http://www.freespeedtest.com/ (and hogging up my upload bandwidth), I got an average of 4.1Mbps over 4 tests of files in increasing sizes up to 3MB. I got close to the same thing here at work, but it looks like home is a little bit faster.

that's what I get at home, but the speeds are so much faster for me at home because they have packetshaper here at work and it throttles the crap out of my speeds. There's also some DNS issues I can't get anyone to admit we have. I try to download the podcast from http://dl.tv and the IP for the download server resolves differently from home and from work.

Have you tried:
ipconfig /flushdns

yes, and I've verified that I'm getting incorect addresses from work and correct ones from home.

That's funky. Perhaps you should override it in your hosts file. :-)

I tried, but the server's doing some funky load balancing stuff. Do a nslookup on zdpub.vo.llnwd.net to see what I mean. The subnet I get at work isn't even the same as from home. It's frustrating, but as long as I can get the podcasts at home I'm ok.
