Still got a link down with Vocus and still having links go up and down with Swoop.<br>
<br>
Something more significant is happening somewhere - would be great if anyone can shed some light on what's happening so we all don't keep chasing our tails.<br>

Interesting.<br>

I believe Aussie is based in Melbourne - I had a major outage on several Vocus services in Melbourne between about 09:10 and 09:40 this morning.<br>
<br>
Wonder if they're in a shared DC and took a hit at the same time as Aussie did...<br>
