Network problems on a major backbone: Global Crossing
During the day we were receiving messages regarding the problem with one of the major backbone providers, Global Crossing whose fiber optic network covers more than 100,000 route miles, reaching six continents, 60 countries and more than 600 major cities. There are some problems being experienced on the following routes; from Global Crossing to Internap, Level3, Savvis, SBC, Verizon, XO. This is reason many websites during the day are experiencing problems with availability and latency.

Perhaps Jaws bit the optic?
