Ok getting there from Cogent in Denver:

We’re seeing very poor performance on Cogent in Chicago to major sites such as CNN and Salon. Traceroutes indicate packets dropping inside Cogent’s network and at their handoff to at atdn.net. Opened a ticket with Cogent around 10am Central, haven’t heard from anybody since.

Not necessarily related to your problem, but maybe another data point.

Bah!

CNN and www.archive.org were the two sites I couldn’t get to…

-Mike

Maybe they depeered themselves. They seem to be on a roll!

The archive.org/Cogent stuff was an issue specific to archive.org's
connection to Cogent.

http://www.e-gerbil.net/cogent-t1r looks like they’re playing the depeering games again.

No problem here…

It's quite ironic and they (Cogent) are quite contradicting themselves.
When their CEO, Dave Schaffer comes out to media and bashes Level3, France
Telecom, AOL, etc (the list goes on), citing "Cogent is being unfairly
treated", each and every time Cogent gets depeered, you would think Cogent
would be the last network to be the one pulling jack moves.

Now it seems Cogent is the one that's unfairly treating their peers, the
table has been turned around.

Time to buy some ATDN transit just to reach Cogent, eh? I'm sure they'll get
a kick out of this one :slight_smile:

what we see in others is oft a reflection of our own thoughts
