RE: Level3 problems

I was given the same info re: maintenance. While on the phone with
them, I started to see things come back to life, but still a big
mess at the moment.

I was given the same info re: maintenance. While on the phone with
them, I started to see things come back to life, but still a big
mess at the moment.

Here in Northern Virginia / Tyco Road, everything went down at 2:00 AM EDT and seemed to
come back at about 4:00 AM. BGP looks normal, but my traffic is still down by a factor of ~ 2.
Multicast beacon connectivity is also still lousy, so I would tentatively conclude that there are
still problems out there somewhere.

On the other hand, streaming audio to my home in Cox Communications doesn't seem to have lost a
packet in 2 hours.
