Anyone else having issues with SolidVPS? / Solidvps.com down?

Hey guys,
Just noticed about 30 minutes ago that all my servers with SolidVPS went completely offline. Their main site (solidvps.com) seems to be unreachable as well.
I know @SolidVPS isn’t active here anymore and hasn't posted offers in a while, but wanted to check if anyone else is hosting with them and seeing the same issue, or if it's just on my end.
Global outage or did the plug just get pulled?

Thanked by 2oloke jackboy

    Their status page is offline too which is always a good sign.

    Tampa is down and AMS is up for me. Tampa has been pretty stable for me until recently when Hetrix Tools reported a few short outages that appeared network related. This one is longer than the other two.

    I've had a dedicated in Tampa, it was solid the first month but I also got those two outages, however when those occurred the website was still accessible. This is the third 1 hour plus in what, a little over a week?

    Worth noting the this two were attributed to the switch in my cabinet, and both times they said they replaced the switch.

    Both my machines work fine at least (UK and whatever the cheap US was last sale)

    EDIT: Heh.

  • Classic hosting on your own none-redudant infrastructure.

    Same here. My SolidVPS servers are down too, and their website/client area is unreachable on my end. Definitely looks like a broader outage, not an isolated issue.

    Back up.

    EDIT: My Tampa VM is back up, but solidvps.com seems to be still down.

    Zero backup = Zero worth

  • coldcold Member

    down

  • zejjntzejjnt Member

    I just checked, my UK is in Redditch and my US is in NC, both work as usual, no slowdowns or issues.
    Isn't Tampa their kinda haunted location? Pressing F to pay respects.

    Damn, usually I am the first person to post when the Tampa SolidSeoVPS goes down, I can't believe so many people beat me this morning, Jesus!

    I'm still down, btw, :( gonna have to scrape by until they get it together with another "well, this never normally happens"... I can't complain at the price, but this seems to be a common happenstance this year, so far :( Otherwise, amazing service, if you can afford the hours long blips when things go offline unexpectedly in Tampa.

    I live around here and I do NOT self host (after 20+ years of doing so) because the weather and other elements around here are NOT conducive towards running servers. The heat. The lightning. This is a bad place for Penguins. :( I was excited to have a host right across the bridge from me, but I'm seeing that I just traded self-hosting for somebody else dealing with the same issues I'd be dealing with running it on my own XD haha. At least right now it isn't my headache. I'm not rushing down to some box somewhere to hammer it with a wrench while looking like a confused polar bear. :)

  • Tampa is down for me as well

  • jackboyjackboy Member

    Ironic where we are a month later, eh, boys? :( Solid's last comment on these forums a month ago was like "we aren't a shit show, we'll show YOU with our rollout next month!", I guess this was supposed to be it XD haha... Sheesh.

  • jackboyjackboy Member

    Still down over here :/ their Tampa locations will have you looking like a schmuck to your clients :(

    My server in Tampa is also still down and so is their main site and client login.

    However, weirdly noticed that a few other sub/domains of theirs still work?

    Hopefully the issue can be resolved soon, as service with them has been overall good.

  • jackboyjackboy Member

    Yeah, they always come back, eventually - from what I am seeing - this is upstream even of them? :( sucks. I guess just wrong place to have boxes. ;_;

    For anybody else bored of playing the dinosaur game:

    In a worst-case scenario, a severe Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) outage can last up to 15 hours, though major incidents are typically resolved within 4 to 6 hours.

    Rogers Canada (2022): An internal routing failure required roughly 15 hours of downtime to restore basic internet services to millions of customers.

    Cloudflare (2026): An unintentional withdrawal of BGP routes made services completely invisible and unreachable globally for approximately six hours.

    Facebook/Meta (2021): A faulty network configuration command took down all BGP routes to Facebook's DNS servers, lasting about 5.5 hours before engineers manually restored the networking equipment.

    Verizon BGP Route Leak (2019): A small ISP leaked improper routes to Verizon, causing widespread misrouting and slowdowns that took a few hours to correct.

    Since you are currently 3 hours into the outage, a 5-to-6-hour window is the most probable resolution timeframe for a standard datacenter routing collapse, while a 15-hour duration represents the extreme historical upper limit.
