Does anyone have any details about the Cogent outage that started this morning (9am GMT-400) and is still continuing ? If its a fibre cut between Montville (NJ?) and Cleveland OH (http://status.cogentco.com/) why is it so bad in Chicago and Albany locations ? Is there really that little excess capacity ?
My connection out of Toronto is pretty bad via Albany

There is a fiber cut (occurred at about 2:11 UTC) in Ohio. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with this problem. It is impacting some traffic between Chicago and New York, though. -- R.
