Network Problem

ServInt experienced 6 hours down time due to fiber cut yesterday, it's quite frustrating. Besides losing orders, I'm more concerned about the possible search engine ranking. Google was doing a deep crawl on one of my websites before the server was down - which I have been waiting for days, I have no idea how Google deals with this, will it arrange the deep crawl next day or till weeks later?

But anyway, the problem was solved quickly, I think 6 hours for a fiber cut problem is not long. According to ServInt's post-outage email, the CEO has got Deutsche Telecom as another fiber provider, this will solve the single link problem.

Here is a picture of the fiber cut spot, I feel much better when I saw it :-).
