Looks like things are recovering.

Our monitoring showed recovery around 21:47 to 21:52 UTC, about 30 minutes
ago.

Latest Update

 	Identified - Bandwidth has identified the cause of this incident and is
 	observing improved network and portal behavior.

 	Sep 25, 18:18 EDT

All of my alarms have cleared, SMS messages are coming in reliably, Inbound
and Outbound calling seem restored in our tests.
