Just saw an ETR of 11:00AM EDT from http://status.cogentco.com Chuck -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu] On Behalf Of Scott Francis Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 10:40 AM To: nanog@merit.edu Subject: Cogent outage details? am receiving word that Cogent has been the victim of "hardware problems on our backbone causing latency and packet loss to customers on the east coast". I did manage to get a master ticket number (608503), but I'm curious if anybody out there (perhaps an actual Cogent customer) has more details - backhoe? operator error? evaporating subatomic black hole? -- darkuncle@{gmail.com,darkuncle.net} || 0x5537F527 encrypted email to the latter address please http://darkuncle.net/pubkey.asc for public key This e-mail message and any files transmitted with it contain confidential information intended only for the person(s) to whom this email message is addressed.
