You really hate to have problems like this. It would be one thing if you had an obviously faulty piece of hardware, but if the problem is systemic, you've got whole other can of worms. I hope it works out alright for you. Whenever I discover a problem like this, I'm prone to mentally panicking, and I have to remind myself that despite the problems that I'm having right now, lots of large scale infrastructures rely on the same technology, and if it were inherently as deeply flawed as it seems at the moment, then all of those organizations would have problems too. Breath deeply and work with the provider on the fix. It'll get better. That’s really too bad! You really hate to have problems like this.
