We’re excited to let you know that we will be relocating to a new office building in early August.

As a result of the move our servers will be taken offline - we will take the opportunity to give them a good clean too.

Hopefully it will only be for a day or so.

📅 Timeline

July/August 2025 (exact dates TBA)

🔧 Expected Impact

Server downtime: The forum (and related services) will be offline.
No access: You won’t be able to view or post during this maintenance window.

We’ll post a reminder in this thread at least one week before the planned downtime, including the specific dates. Thank you for your patience as we make this move.

If you have questions before the downtime announcement, feel free to reply here. We’ll update you as soon as we’ve locked in the exact dates.

We now have a confirmed date for our ISP installation at the new office:

📅 Wednesday, 16th July 2025

ISP Installation: Our internet service provider will be setting up connectivity in the new building.
Service Interruption: Once installation is complete, BeoWorld will go offline while we update our servers with the new IP addresses.
Estimated Downtime: We expect the forum to be down for no more than two days. We’ll work around the clock to get everything configured and tested.

After this network cut-over, there will be a second, shorter shutdown when we physically relocate the servers into their new racks. We anticipate that will only last a few hours.

We’ll post reminders in this thread:

One week before the 16th July installation
One day before the installation weekend
Prior to the final physical move once those dates are set

Thank you for your continued patience. We’re looking forward to returning online with improved infrastructure very soon!

Thanks. Here’s to a (mostly) smooth move—though we’re bracing for a few curveballs 😆 Once we’re settled in, we’ll post a video tour and share some new photos of the space!

Sorry for the downtime! Our ISP ended up cancelling their installation visit, so we decided to use the time to carry out some maintenance – including a move to a brand‑new virtual server. It took rather longer than we expected, but everything should now be up and running smoothly. If you notice anything amiss, just give me a shout and I’ll sort it right away. Thanks for your patience!

Just clicked around the site and everything loads much faster now. I'm using a iPhone with Safari.

Good news about the speed. I have wanted to move it onto a clean server for a while, the concern of not getting it back up an running stopped me previously 🤣
