AT&T backbone issues 08/04/2011 1230pm - 5pm CDT? Did anyone else notice any problems on the ATT backbone yesterday? We had one VPN tunnel go down (out of 8) and found the problem was within the ATT internet infrastructure. After being transferred around ATT for about 2 hours, the problem seemed to resolve itself. We are in Baton Rouge. LA and our VPN connect from here to Connecticut. We found that packets from Connecticut were reaching us here, but were not gettting back to Connecticut. Our tracert failed at 12.81.24.97. After the problem resolved itself, we were able to continue on to 74.175.192.22.
