Any (technical) information on the cause of the outage?

CloudFlare thinks it had to do with bad BGP routes:

Not much technical details from the Rogers CEO:

> "We now believe we've narrowed the cause to a network system failure following a maintenance update in our core network, which caused some of our routers to malfunction early Friday morning,"

Wired or wireless? Where are you? Most of GTA was back up around midnight (or about 22 hours ago).

For me, it was both the wired home internet which is TekSavvy as well as mobile phone which is on Fido. Both TekSavvy and Fido rely on Rogers behind the scenes.

Ours came back at around 2am EST.
