[outages] Internet latency - or was it just Verizon?

[Steven Fischer]

at about 10:20AM EST we noticed our response times/latency from all external
web sites we monitor (CNN, Google, MSN, etc.) go through the roof.  We
noticed also a ridiculous number/percentage of dropped packets (about 50-60%
to all these sites).  On hold with Verion now,(and I suspect I'll be on hold
for a while) but if anyone can enlighten me as to what happened, it'd be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve Fischer
Sr. Network Engineer
