Re: did mci upgrade at mae-east?

MCI's NOC said they were having significant congestion problems in Boston and I believe the date they stated had passed. (I was calling on behalf of a customer..) This may be what you're seeing.

My little tester shows that we went from about 30% packet loss across MCI-MAE-East to maybe 1%.

I saw some MCI "Outage" messages all pointing towards the 13th with downtime specified for rebuilding parts of the ATM section of the network. Maybe one of those repairs went in at MAE-East?

Whatever it is, it looks better than it has since about September 20th when I started noticing severe packet-loss at MCI MAE-East.

I hope it isn't just a fluke in my "sensors" :)

Cheers!
