thanks

We have not had any problem with the servers. There are two independent servers 1000 km apart. There was a report of problem on Saturday morning caused by the major Internet provider in Sweden, may be they had some trouble on friday night also.
Remeber that the remoterig ddns is a free service with no functional guarantee at all. If 100% functionality is needed I recommend to use two independent ddns systems.

I had problems last Friday, 20th Feb. I was giving a talk and demonstration of remote amateur radio operation at a radio club in NE London. I do not use Remote Rig dynamic DNS as I have fixed IPs on my station and standby route (separate ADSL provider with a radio link onto the radio site).
My problem is that the webpage from the RC-1216H that I use with an Acom 2000A linear would not load properly from about 19:30 to 21:30 UTC. :( :( :(
This occured on Internet service from two different 3G providers and different DNS services and confused me. The next morning all was well.
With the RC-1212H Acom amplifier pages the browser loads a script from www.remoterig.com/1216H/acom/ This was missing and therefore I could not demonstrate the remote use of the Acom linear!
The RemoteRig site was clearly unavailable on the Internet ??? ??? !!!
I am unsure as to how to host the script myself?

To host the script etc yourself you would need access to a web server and put the files/directories found here:
www.remoterig.com/downloads/scripts/acom.zip (http://www.remoterig.com/downloads/scripts/acom.zip)
retaining the directory structure.
Then you change the URL in the settings to point to that site/place.

Sorry I'm late to this conversation, but I experienced the downtime last Friday, too. I was unable to start my TCVR the entire evening (my local time). It started to work on Saturday morning. My TCVR / RemoteRig setup used RemoteRig's DNS. During the downtime I was able to rotate my antenna. My rotator and also my Watt/SWR meter both use Lantronix serial server and my own static IP. (I've set my RemoteRig to use my own static IP since this incident.)
