Here's what I've heard: MFS experienced a power outage affecting a Tellabs Titan 5500 DACS. The outage +occurred at ~20:35 Eastern. Most service was restored between 22:46 and 23:35 +Eastern. At this time, MFS believes 90-95% of customers have been restored. +Connectivity to/from other providers in the NYC area affected by this outage +may have been degraded during this time. Connectivity to/from other providers +in the NYC area appears to have returned to normal.
