Question Anyone here with ProNIC ?

I've not been able to access my site for five hours and I was wondering if anyone here is with ProNIC Solutions? I've tried contacting them but no luck and when I do a Traceroute it says...

Maybe time to look for a new host, any host that makes you wait that long to reply

What did they say?

I think you might be right because this is the second time it's happened this week. This is what they said..

The server itself is fine today.

One of our nameservers is having issues, which is causing the domains to not look up properly.

We are working to have this resolved ASAP.

Lord, their latency is horrible. I checked their website over broadband and wireless broadband and the trace route to the website was horrible. Ranges from 100ms to 425ms, which is very high. Most quality web hosting providers run mid 40-60, high 70-80.

Of course, they could be having network issues, though they are using a Level3 mix and Level3 is generally good as far as connections go.

Once things got back to normal (after waiting 7 hours) my site went down again as I had exceeded my bandwidth limit. I know it's up to me to keep an eye on it but it would have been nice if I'd received a reminder about it as it's not something I have had to check before. I then had to upgrade my account and wait a further 12 hours for it to be processed.

I think it's time I moved hosts.
