I have been talking to a tech at bellsouth.net, and he says there is an internet backbone crash in California that is affecting eBay, MSN, and a lot of other stuff.
Yes, I seem to be logged into FR, but many other sites are unavailable, including google.

I just did a Google search. MSN and eBay are working fine for me, too.

They're blowing out the lines. Once every two or three years they have to hook up a particle "blower" to different T-1 lines around the country and get the particles out of the Internet lines. If you have an external modem you may want to put a bag over it to keep any dust from blowing out onto desk.

I have to maintain a network for a living. Other folks want to see foxnews.

Hmmm. The fact that we are posting indicates no big problem.
I haven't noticed anything today - seems to be zipping right along.
I did have a significant slowdown earlier this week, but it was a local (Comcast) problem.

I've tried that excuse, too. They still charge late fees.

Stuff is accessable now, but slow. On dslreports speed test, I'm getting 150 downlowd, 304 upload. That's crazy.
