Regularly scheduled outage every week from about 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning Pacific time (GMT -8) to sometime Friday morning same time zone.

You have several options:

1) Live with idle CPUs for half of each week.
2) Join several BOINC projects (most of my machines are attached to 50+ projects).
3) Set your "extra work" to be about 4 days.

Hi folks,
why is the server often down, so we can´t connect? Because it´s so, I end my work with SETI now.
Bye and have a nice day.

Seti's been running well over 10 years now, but over the course of the past 10 years+ there wasn't anything checking the science done. That's partially being done now, during those 3 days off-time.

I say partially, since they're also in the process of swapping servers around, trying to lose the crash-prone server(s). Plus all kinds of odds and ends that they weren't able to do while the project ran full-steam, since then they were mostly busy fixing broken stuff. Not anything they were actually hired for. (Do read the technical news for lots of updates on what is happening)

Real is just a matter of perception.
