MCI's NOC said they were having significant congestion problems in
Boston and I believe the date they stated had passed. (I was calling
on behalf of a customer..) This may be what you're seeing.

We only wish that the west coast was as fortunate as the east. Mae-West
is having problems that I can only say.. ouch. Giga2 has 20% packetloss from
the RAs at Mae-West AMES. Look at the RA. Ticket #51495 has been opened
with MFS on this problem. Looks like HOL to us.

MCI at the PB-NAP is saturated. Global ticket 583 has been opened with MCI.

Others at the PB-NAP are just as saturated.

Not specifically MAE-East however, backbone maintence has been occuring and
will continue as needed.

me too although, maybe more people in the world just stopped pinging our
NAP routers and they had more time to respond to yours.....:)

It seems that people do notice good things :-)

Indeed, we have doubled our capacity to Mae-East. -- Enke
