Cogent Reports Internet Disruption

Of course, this first came to light this morning on the NANOG mailing list.

Marguerite Reardon writes on the C|Net Broadband Blog:

Cogent Communications, which provides Internet backbone services to large companies and Internet service providers, experienced an outage caused by a routing instability at around 9:30 AM east coast time on Thursday, the company said.

The problem affected approximately 10 percent of Cogent's customers, which include Internet service providers such as Time Warner Cable. As of 2 pm on Thursday, network service was restored for most customers, the company said.
