Posted July 8, 2014 It seems there is some DDOS'ing going on that is effecting the internet backbone (Germany) , but it is not directed at Wurm Online. That may be contributing to the wide-spread lag we are feeling today. http://www.digitalattackmap.com/#anim=1&color=0&country=DE&time=16258&view=map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2014 Thanks for the post on the situation! PS: I learned something new from that map. China likes to to alot of ddosing and the US receives alot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2014 Just to note the ones that look like an umbrella type shape upwards are unknown source or destination so the ones from the us and china do not mean it is going between the two :-) There is a little key on the bottom left. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2014 I was looking at the graphs at the bottom they had from each. China had a bunch going out to nowhere, and the us had a bunch coming in Didnt say they were at each other, course the data does imply it XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 9, 2014 Yeah I have been getting on/off BAD spikes... They aren't the normal type of lag spikes that happen when server is backing up. These lag spikes last for minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Germany is experiencing heavy rainfalls and weather related issues since yesterday as well. When you call the german Telekom Hotline (the guys who run most of the internet related infrastructure in germany) to report a problem they have a announcement running before you get ot talk to someone, telling that they experience a lot of network outages due to the bad weather. So that might as well affect the servers on top of that DDoS thing that went on or still is going on... Guess it's a few things coming together... weather takes out some infrastrukture and the backup for that is probably burneded by some attack? Just a random guess from what i have gathered at work so far today. For me Wurm doesn't lag "permanently" either, its just spikes... so i wouldn't point at the Wurm Server right away knowing there are a lot of network issues going on here in germany at the moment. :/ EDIT:http://www.heise.de/netze/netzwerk-tools/imonitor-internet-stoerungen/aktuelle-internet-stoerungen-im-ueberblick/ A Listing of currently known Internet issues across all providers, sadly in germany only. Tells the ISP / First digits of the regional phone code / start date and time of the issue / still ongoing or ongoing since... / type of problem / access via... / As you can see under the "Dauer" column, a lot of these begun yesterday (08.07) and are still ongoing (dauert an).

Posted July 9, 2014 Hetzner update: July 9, 2014 2:15:00 PM CEST It appears the Problem from yesterday has started again, since there are still vulnerable systems left. We're closely monitoring the matter. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Thank you for your understanding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 9, 2014 Well, beats the old provider at least. What was their MO...... oh yeah... "Shutdown everything and hope the DDoS'er gets bored" 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
