Major Internet backbone Savvis is down. Comcast hit worst.

Networking and broadband talkabout. Need help with that new router or setting up a network?

Major Internet backbone Savvis is down. Comcast hit worst.

In the chart on the page the above link takes you to, red is bad.

Savvis is the primary backbone for Comcast.

I had issues reaching the forum last night, and this am phone is ringing off the hook with calls from clients who use Comcast.

Here's a screenshot from noon:

It's affecting other providers like AT&T and CenturyLink as well.

4pm and still issues. Even more red areas on the Comcast outage map than before.

I lost access to the forums here again (the server is in CA) and I'm posting using my phone's wifi tether.

We seem to not be terribly affected. I haven't noticed much but a dead pic here and there on my mails.
