At about midnight we started experiencing some problems with our server.
Here's an update:
"At this time there are network outages in the Chicago area. We are working on bringing the servers back up as soon as possible and appreicate your patience with us at this time.
UPDATE: --
There is a power issue with some of the border gateway routers in the Chicago area. I will be notified when it comes back up. The power issue isn't in our servers, the issue is a comercial power grid in Chicago that is hitting some of the bgp routers in the area. Once that is restored connections will come back up instantly.
Sorry for this issue - we are on the immediate callback list once they get it back up and running. "
