Internet access isn't war safe :(

My Internet provider - Netvsion - had major @#$@-out due to power outage in Haifa where their headquarters are.

I can say what I think about ISP provider without generator in their main facility. But it doesn't matter. What does matter is that today I am lucky that my friend choose a different ISP.

On other hand they probably have generators. But mass disconnect-reconnect during outage in the city + reduced tech support staff just pulled the system down.

То есть, систему положили одномоментно коннектящиеся абоненты. Недостаток пиковой пропускной способности, так поллучается.

Угу - и у Netvision c этим проблемы есть...
