Network Outage (2/17)

external network seems to have gone down sometime around 8:52am PST today (Friday 2/17).

I've done all of the usual tests and am still not getting ping from the gateway.

Speakeasy's status page is not as yet showing an outage however their callcenter is reporting a "high volume" and I waited on hold for 30 minutes without getting anybody. so I'm guessing Something Bad is going down and they're in Headless Chicken Mode at the moment.

Update (11:30am):   yay, we're back.
