Names changed but date/time real ;)

 

 

 

Bobs Deals has a business internet connection (static etc) with ThatISPThere Inc.

 

Bob gets an email from ThatISPThere Inc today at 12.30pm advising there will be an IP change on the connection.

 

Date : 13th June

 

Time : Between 12am and 6pm

 

 

 

Thats right. Not even 24hrs notice. Not even a real time window. 

 

 

 

Advised Bob to go back and say "hell no, IT needs the time its happening so can switch over IP in routers/firewalls etc and Im not paying them to sit around for 18 hours waiting"

 

 

 

Be interesting to see their response......

Mein gott!





I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
