CLEO May also be a hosting option. I'm waiting on them getting back to me.

Apparently it's a core switch failure, nice to see Fasthosts have redundancy.

I can confirm it's just dedicated servers that suffered downtime. I use Fasthosts to host my website, but on their Windows Business service. I've suffered no downtime touchwood

Glad to see Edugeek back up and running!

It will be in the CLEO core at Lancaster, right on the backbone, not in Preston

That'll be the place where they make random changes without telling you then?
