No peering problems from my network with Level3 in London Telehouse West, maybe a minute or so of increased latency at 10:09 GMT

Routing to a level3 ISP I have an office in in the states peers with London15.Level3.net

No problem to my Cogent ISP in the states, although we don't peer directly with Cogent, that bounces via Telia

Going east from London, a 10 second outage at 12:28:42 GMT on a route that runs from me, level3, tata in India, but no rerouting.

I had to use a VPN With US location to post this comment. I am in Europe.

HN works fine from Germany with Telefonica (O2) and also from the Netherlands with XS4ALL.

Edit: Somewhere between 14:00 and 14:46Z it also went down from O2; XS4ALL still works, and O2 can reach XS4ALL.

In a situation like this, what are the best "status" sites to be watching?

Nanog is also pretty helpful for this specific type of issue

Here's a direct link to this month's messages:

Except for the fact that internetweathermap.com is super green, and the internet is not currently super green.

So, that's why HN is unreachable from Belgium at the moment (right when I was trying to figure a dns cache problem in Firefox,of course).

An ssh tunnel through OVH/gravelines is working so far. edit: Proximus. edit2: also, Orange Mobile

You mean nanog.org? I don't see a stats page linked in their menu.

Looks like Centurylink/Level3 (as3356) might not be withdrawing routes after people close their peering?

Maybe fix this typo? "Save titme on issues investigation"

And > Monitor all 3rd parties services *3rd party services or possibly 3rd parties' services

Thank you, fixed it, I definitely didn't pay attention on this

Now wondering if it impacted conversion rate?
