We are continuing to monitor network performance following the recent mitigation changes implemented by our data center. Conversations remain ongoing with the datacenter and downstream service providers as they fine-tune routing and stability measures.

Fortunately, we have not observed any significant or widespread drops since the changes were applied. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.

The data center has found the issue and is working on a fix.

The data center engineering team has confirmed that these disruptions are related to an ongoing large-scale DDoS event. While the attacks are not targeting Fumeblast directly, they are impacting connectivity across several upstream carriers and other providers in the facility.
