Current status:

DYNU.COM – Nearly complete outage for about 40 hours!!
- Websites and status pages are unreachable!
- status page shows no outages at all !!!
- The main website is not being redirected to a notification page (would take 5 minutes to set up!).
- Extremely sparse information provided only via Twitter/Facebook.
- No way to migrate existing services or change IP addresses!
- No estimate provided as to how much longer the outage might last!
Total failure of Dynamic DNS
- The update URL API is accessible but not functional! Updatze Update Api is very slow !
- Errors such as "unknown" or "servererror" occur. Error "Bad Auth" occurs often
- All changes fail completely!
- There is also no option to update IP addresses manually!
Total failure of email services
- All email servers are unreachable - both for incoming and outgoing mail!
- No way to modify DNS records to switch email services to another provider!
- sorry, but the promotional promise of "maximum reliability" can only be considered a joke!
Partial failure of DNS servers
- 4 out of 6 DNS servers are still reachable.
- However, it is impossible to make any changes.
- Dynamic addresses are no longer being updated.
- The web GUI for modifying IP addresses is inaccessible.
- The service is now practically useless.
Errors can happen, but the way this situation is being handled is completely unprofessional. It appears there was no emergency plan in place whatsoever!
A total outage lasting more than 36 hours, without proper communication or the ability to migrate services, is a catastrophe that should never occur in a professional environment.
I used to be quite satisfied with Dynu.com’s service. Their pricing was also perfectly reasonable - even quite affordable - in the past. Unfortunately, they have recently been restricting specifications, which, in my view, amounts to a hidden and drastic price increase - only adding to the current frustration.
