Our Cogent and Internet2 lines at NIU have both been knocked off the air
due to a major problem. I have no time of restoral. It has been down since
about 21:30Z, but didn't notice a thing because we have our own
NOAAport feed off the dish...email was getting through...and it was only
until I tried to plot Level 2 data that I realized we were down. I'll
keep everyone updated as I learn more. Our 1 remaining connection, called
Illinois Century Network (ICN), is 85 megabits/second and is saturated to
the hilt.
