High levels of packet loss were detected with one of our transit providers. At this time we have shut down all links to Level(3) and will not return these links to service until we receive the all-clear.
Certain Internet destinations may have been unreachable while this issue persisted. Service to our peering partners, including voice services and most UK destinations, was unaffected.
If you continue to observe any issues, please contact the NOC.
