So if you have a static BBS, specially if you are serving an echonet,
post it here. I would also like to post this list in the next NULL mag.

Because of all that is happening in the world, i would like to have aEggy BBS has a static IP 192.95.57.6
list of BBSes that use static IPs... in case some DNS servers go down ;) This way we could stay in contact even if things get more ugly and have problems with the Net also.

Great idea...but if the DNS servers go down...won't others go down as well? Almost believe the situation in the TV show Revolution from a few years ago may be more of the truth. Hope I'm wrong.

I am not an expert but if DNS servers go down, you have a good chance that the server is still on line and can be connected via the IP number.

Perhaps it's time to make use of dialup connections again hahahaha :) perhaps even via ham radios :)

That's assuming all the links inbetween stay up. I don't know how true
it is these days but a lot of traffic used to head to the US before it
got to go anywhere else much. Used to if you talked to another
provider in Oz, there was
a good chance the above was the case.
That might not be as true now, but the first premise is still the same, you still need all the links along the way, and there doesn't seem to
be much redundancy in there.

Card & Claw is not serving an echonet, but has a static IP: 34.94.101.98

Oh yeah! Just have to do a PING to get the IP address. Nothing too
hard about that.

may not be
such a bad idea after all. Just in case, etc.
you use go down, you can always use Googles (8.8.8.8,8.8.4,4) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1). Should they go down and the rest of the DNS system goes down, there is nothing to send a query to and doing a "ping google.com" will result in nothing.

I realize you may be joking but just to be clear to anyone who hasn't
read up on the workings of the global DNS system: if the DNS hosting
your domain name goes down, your entire domain name will be gone from
the rest of the internet within hours or days (depending on several factors such as TTL on your DNS records, etc). Should the DNS server
you use go down, you can always use Googles (8.8.8.8,8.8.4,4) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1). Should they go down and the rest of the DNS
system goes down, there is nothing to send a query to and doing a

If you have POTS (I don't and can't get it, it's all VoIP now), that
is.

It's all interconnected via SIP. If there are major problems with the
DNS, this
won't work.
Maybe i2p would work without DNS, not sure about Tor.

It's actually a proper POTS line and not a VOIP thing.

The stupid part about Aus is that we're using a lot of old POTS copper toget to the residence. We had FTC, which has stood for about 50 different things,
Fibre to Consumer, Fibre to Curb, Fibre to Chile I think too. Then itbecame Fibre to the Node and re use the copper to get around the burbs. And so
the NBN - No bloody network :) Have to say despite a fair number ofcomplaints its served me pretty well so far.

I have it iover HFC (cable), and it is slower (same provider) that
it was before NBN. I used to consitently get 115Mbps but now get
~90. Uplink is faster 10x faster though :) ...deon

Most of our POTS is still around although the national phone company
has started to dismantle it here and there where the wires and infrastructure is too old and it's too expensive to upgrade it (out in
the countryside, small villages, etc).

Funny, today the nameserver of our provider went down. Nothing worked,
but I could still poll Hub 3 over Tor ;). I changed the nameservers in
the router to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 as a workaround.

I don't want to say "i told you so..."... but i told you so...
hahaha :) I haven't used Tor at all... how you use it to connect to
the hub? perhaps a bbs?
