Can't connect to game via client nor can I reach www.eve-online.com; is it down? Or am I just perhaps experiencing a local or regional routing problem?
Turns out it's a routing problem. One or more of the atdn.net routers (AOL Transit Data Network) in Dallas are "running hot" (according to their NOC) and that's where my traceroute times out.
Comments
I can get through the routers fine, at this point in time. Everything is ok (atleast at the main page)
I can't get through either, they say that they are expiriencing some down time.
