Hello,
As of 17:45 UTC we have regained external network connectivity.  Only incoming data was 
affected starting yesterday around 21:00 UTC.  All connectivity was lost between 16:30 and 
17:30 today.
The outage was due to hardware problem with the UWisconsin Campus network, however I have 
not received the details, but it obviously did not affect everyone on Campus equally.

All,
As yet unidentified network problems began at UW Madison yesterday
afternoon around 4PM local time (21 UTC). At the current time, 
SSEC appears to be more affected than AOS. I stopped receiving
any data from unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu around 11:30 AM local time 
today (16:30 UTC).
I have failed over to thelma.ucar.edu for NEXRAD|FNEXRAD and
to atm.geo.nsf.gov for IDS|DDPLUS|HDS
Data seems to be flowing, so downstreams from me should be getting
data again soon.
Support@unidata, if I should be failing over to someone else, please
let me know.
From the tech-email list on campus, here is the announcement of
what is going on:
There is a network problem. The only info I have is that the
network (or parts of it) went down around 3:38p yesterday.
It came up sporadically but went down again. Network
engineering is working on it; there is no diagnosis yet.
We'll post something as soon as we get the info.
Happy Thursday!
Pete
