SETI@Home connection already fixed again...

[Rattledagger]

December 17, 2005
Around 22:00 UTC today our Cogent link went down. We aren't sure why, exactly, but no work can be uploaded/downloaded until this is fixed. Feel free to donate your CPU cycles to other BOINC projects in the meantime.

From forum:

While I was on hold for 30 minutes with Cogent the problem cleared itself up. Some weird router loop on their end it seems (see traceroute post below). Anyway..

For the record, Cogent is not a sponsor. We pay them, and the bits should flow. It's incredibly annoying when they do not.

Oh, and the traceroute:

I recommend the Einstein@Home project - but I am a little biased. 😀

Apparently already cleared-up again...
