I received the following notification from our hosting company (Pair Networks):

Network Problems
----------------

Level3, one of our network providers, has been having a major
intermittent outage affecting at least the East Coast of the
United States since approximately 6:00 AM this morning. They
are accepting traffic for our network and dropping 50% or more
of it. Even when we shut down the line, they continue to
announce and drop traffic (a situation reported by other
network operators in a variety of locations as well). Until
they correct their configuration issue and honor our requests
to stop announcing our traffic, this problem will persist. We
are keeping as much pressure on them as we can to resolve the
issue. Anyone who reaches our network via any of our other
network providers -- Telia, GTT, or Cogent -- will be
unaffected.

Thanks Gordon, I was getting ready to mention the problem but you already are on top of it. Thank you.

UPDATE:

Network Problem Update
----------------------

We have not yet received official word from Level3, but our
circuit has returned to normal service, and we have seen notice
from dozens of other affected networks that they have seen the
same. We will continue to monitor the circuit closely.

Thank you for keeping us informed, Gordon.
