My cable-modem provider, bbnow.net (AS 8092), is apparently entirely off
the air. Even their customer-support number (888 674 8282) changed its
main OGM to say that their upstream was having a problem, and they will
"not be able to provide Internet service" to their subscribers until
Monday. They estimate. They're sorry for the inconvenience.
So I'm wondering: What upstream? What problem? This started long before
the jolly happy MS SQL server thing, so I think it's unrelated. Can anyone
shed any light on this for me? How does it take until Monday for a
not-tiny ISP to fix "the" upstream? Did they not pay their bill?
