Here's the official word we received: "The outage on TAT-14 Segment I is on-going. This segment is on the European side between the Netherlands and France, effecting traffic to UK, Ireland, France, and other areas in Europe. This is the 2nd failure on this ring cable which has caused the protection path to fail. The International Restoration Team is working an ad-hoc restoration which will take several hours. They have already restored some VC4 facilities and this work is on-going." -Jack --- Leo Bicknell <[email protected]> wrote: > In a message written on Tue, Nov 25, 2003 at 07:24:27PM +0000, > [email protected] wrote: > > still seeing decent ping times. anyone detect an actual outage or issue? > > Best info we have is that there are two outages.
