Internet latency - or was it just Verizon?
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 -- To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We had some complaints of packet loss to Google as early as Friday. Traffic was taking our Verizon transit connection out of Philadelphia. Latency appeared normal however. Loss was as high as 50%. We peer directly with Yahoo and Microsoft so we didn't see any problem there. A ticket was opened with Verizon at some point and it was closed today without any details. The problem appears resolved.
