   Cogent Communications are currently experiencing connectivity issues, this may effect some players on the east coast of USA and in Europe.

Their status page says the following:

"Currently there is a fiber cut on our Washington DC to Atlanta longhaul span. Customers may experience latency or packet loss transiting the Eastern US. Our fiber provider currently has technicians at the location assessing damage. The Cogent trouble ticket for tracking this incident is HD6161641. We have no ETR as yet."

As you can see by their connectivity map below this is quite a major internet route (our servers are in Florida). Hopefully it will be resolved soon

	Ok. Have dispatched 5000 Heavy Cavalry to Atlanta with instructions to hold ground at all costs. This town must not fall.

	This appears to be fixed since it is no longer shown on Cogent's status page. http://status.cogentco.com
