Seems like a large outage is hitting RCN's network across several cities (based on people's Twitter posts). They also happen to be my provider and all I get are busy signal when I try to call. :(

Seems like it came back for me. Very slow at the moment, but perhaps crisis averted. Someone must have tripped over the one crucial cord that controls the entire system...

Yeah. It's pretty spotty right now, going momentarily in and out. At least it's something. Got through to their phone center too: the automated message about service issues in my area: expected restoration by 11pm...
