Exclamation Surpass Hosting is down

For anyone who uses surpasshosting, all their services are down--your website, their websites, control panels, etc.

There was a tweet on their twitter page about a minute ago:

Surpass Hosting (surpass) on Twitter

Working on connectivity issues now. Everything should be functional shortly. Thank you for your patience.
I'm guessing they're having issues with their DNS servers.

Seems to be partially working now. I can get to my website but not my cpanel, it says it's not licensed.

Some sites are starting to come back. Surpass itself seems to be back up.

My sites are still down for the count.

Looks like things are back to normal.

According to the twitter feed, the problem was a DDOS attack.

According to their forums, there were power issues related to the addition of a UPS.
