How about hitting other machines within the same (/24 or bigger) network that is unreachable from your machine? There could be several things that could be wrong: - It could be a routing problem on the network that the gopws.com machine sits on. -- Talk with them on the phone. Have them see if they traceroute to your host, etc,etc. - This could be a BGP problem with your upstream(s) or your upstream's BGP peering points. -- Call your upstreams and explain what is happening. - It could be a problem with your network. --Make sure you can reach other sites and traceroute to see what network they reside on. Make sure Tunneling/NAT, etc are configured right. It is probably something typed in Wrong in your upstream's BGP config. Good Luck. Nick Rogness - Drive defensively. Buy a tank.
