After submitting my IREX for a mark I get a screen saying something like "lost connection error". ASL's internet connection failed between when I submitted the exam and waiting for the result to display. Not a nice feeling. After a day of nail biting the ASL Techo was able to piece together my result and I received a phone call with the good news. Would gladly buy that person a beer if I ever met them.
I also could not believe that the ASL system is so vulnerable to failure due to a third party internet connection with seemingly no redundancy.
