 | View Full Version : The internet is down getweb 02-05-2002, 01:23 PM Did someone trip on the backbone? http://www.internettrafficreport.com There's some weird routing going on too. Anybody else see anything? getweb 02-05-2002, 01:36 PM Heh, here's a screenshot of what it was doing: priyadi 02-05-2002, 01:51 PM More likely it was a problem with internettrafficreport.com itself. I can reach a lot of sites without problem. Mester 02-05-2002, 02:20 PM internet traffic report does that from time to time :) jic 02-05-2002, 02:30 PM Well here is something to ponder on... If you could reach the website, how the hell could the backbones be down.. You should email them and ask hehe. :) thewitt 02-05-2002, 02:36 PM I admit it. I took the backbone down. I needed it for about 30 minutes. I'll send out an announcement next time. :) -t getweb 02-05-2002, 02:37 PM Yeah, internettrafficreport went back to normal a few moments later, and it looks like they threw out the bad data, but since then we did lose connectivity to AT&T and Alter.net a couple times (at work, not the datacenter). Seems stable in the last hour now. Thewitt: It's too early for the yearly Internet cleaning, isn' t it? I think that's in April. Heh, maybe somebody had to make a phone call and unplugged it. Let's not bring up my first panicked thought, 'Global Crossing' |
