Investigating
We are writing to inform you that our Seattle location has been experiencing network stability issues for the past 30 minutes.
Initial observations indicate that the issue is related to a recent upgrade that was performed by one of our bandwidth providers, Cogent. Cogent was upgrading one of the route processors on their core and aggregation routers, as recommended by the manufacturer. This work was supposed to begin at 9:00 AM UTC on June 22, 2023, and was not expected to impact our customers.
However, we are now experiencing some network instability as a result of this upgrade. Our network engineers are currently working with the Seattle and Cogent teams to isolate the issue and restore full service as soon as possible.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We will provide updates as they become available.
