Sending out a Thank You to Jonathan and WBW, as you were pretty close: My local router here was failing, apparently. And did, finally. The download speed is back to normal with the new router in place now. Still aiming to move to the newer hardware, though. :) --Tim

Doh! You're right, of course, Jonathan. /facepalm And what do you estimate I'll see by moving to the gigabit port, in relation to the 5-8 MB/s of the 100MBps port? (I'm pretty decided on going forward with the move, but am still trying to wrap my head around this part of the inquiry, sorry.)...

Good morning, Jonathan, and thank you for your response! Yes, I've been very happy with KH (obviously, since I'm still here, lol). :) I keep meaning to get around to an off-site backup solution, but there never seem to be enough hours in my days to actually do so-- and I rely both on the...

Good morning, KH forum! Long time no visit, sorry. That's what happens when everything is running smooth as butter, I guess. However, last night I was downloading a client's CPanel backup (13gb) via FTP and I realized that it was taking forEVER. I started off at a download rate of about...

Those was some great and muchly-welcomed suggestions, @phpAddict! Already discussed these options with the client and they will be letting me know how they would like to proceed. Thanks, too, to Roman in Tech Support for his suggestions! Keep up the good! --Tim

One of my clients is interested in testing something that I pretty much brainstormed up, but I'm hoping to get some additional insight from anyone reading this. Right now, the client has a primary mail account into which emails flow from their online store, a separate dealer ordering system...

Kinda takes the topic further off-topic, but the stunner for me was when EIG managed to buy Constant Contact! I've had a LOT of clients over the years who relied heavily on CC for their mailing campaigns, and I can't imagine the potential level of disaster if/when EIG bungles the acquisition...

Same here. Just passed the one-year mark in January after abandoning the E.I.G. Titanic, surnamed Arvixe, while the captain there kept trying to reassure the passengers and the band played to the same tune. Sure is nice to be standing on solid ground after all that nauseating motion-sickness I...

Good morning, everyone! Having passed the 1-year mark with KnownHost as well as my first dedicated server after years of shared and then VPS hosting the past couple years before coming here, I can see now where I would've done things a little differently. I'm hoping that there is a practical...

Just by way of follow-up: To resolve the remaining database connection issues, I used WHM to change the MySQL password for the impacted users to match the one listed in their respective wp-config file. Thank you to Chase L., Freddie A., and Luke M. for putting up with my persistent clamoring...

Thank you for your suggestion, Curdude! I tried that, but no go. Chase L. in Support might have found the issue after several other dead-ends. my.cnf(MySQL configuration) -- old-passwords = 1 He disabled it and in doing so restored access to the account I've been focusing on so that...

This past Friday, my dedicated server was upgraded to an SSD. A stock OS was installed on the SSD and then account restorations went next. One of the shockers was that all dedicated IP addresses were reset back to the primary IP, breaking two of my largest clients' sites. Got that sorted out...

I certainly appreciate you taking the time to cover the topic, DanielP. It's still far too early to know just yet how this will all play out, but worth keeping apprised of the developments. Thanks again!

Can someone from KH offer insight on this for those of us who host with you, especially on things we should be made aware of as this story continues to develop insofar as our own sites or sites we host for our own clientele? Storing European User Data on USA Servers? Thanks, in advance!

Ever since I stumbled across them, I've been buying my SSL certificates from NameCheap. Others probably have their own go-to source as well. --Timothy Kline

Turned out that Anna from Support was able to sort things out and get things working with the SPF issue. Thanks Anna!! And that you RMedure for this amazing how-to guide. My clients have already started contacting me this morning to ask if the mail server's down because they didn't walk into...

This is all totally off-topic from the OP's post, but I have to admit that I do the same as you. I guess it's like being one of those people who slows down at an accident to see if there's any bodies. I'm guessing that EIG has recently directed them to relocate all their customers to the EIG...

Are there any adjustments that need to be done to the steps for sites hosted that have dedicated IPs and SNI as well? I performed Steps 1 - 6 and started getting the following error (as a sample) when sending from one of the sites that as a dedicated IP (and SNI for their SSL): An error...

I might add that I was with HG for over ten years. Even clung to them after EIG on the hopeless assurance that things would eventually improve. Then I finally left for Arvixe, and I think it was less than a year later that Arvixe got bought out by the investment firm... So yes, your decision to...

EIG! HMPH!!! They bought out my previous hosting service, Arvixe, which is now going through the identical downtime issues currently as EIG consolidates all of their clients to EIG's personal server farm. Arvixe didn't even let the public know; I found out through webhostingtalk (which is where...
