Salt Lake City Utah, Cogent and American Fiber Systems Status; Salt Lake City, Utah

Hi WHT,
I wanted to post this to inform those of you who have a hosting provider that uses American Fiber Systems or Cogent CO. In Salt Lake City, Utah.
Currently they have a disconnect within the fiber network. They are working to resolve this issue as quickly as possible. At this time they have tech testing the fiber networks to locate the severed fiber strands.
This is currently effecting all customers of InstaVPS you will receive an email at the time the network has been restored.
We should have a network status email sent out within the next 30-45 min. Keeping our customers informed is our number one priority. Thank you for your patience. |
