I doubt it. The site would be unreachable form anywhere if it was a DDoS attack. Even when it was timing out for me and I couldn’t reach it at all with my browser, tracert was still able to reach it, as was the alertra.com test from multiple geographic locations. I was able to ping it successfully too.
Could be a problem with something on the server side, or in the code, or any number of things… these things are always a headache.
My normal solution is to bang on the server until it starts to work. At the very least, it makes you feel better.
