The problem has been resolved.

The cause of the networking problem has been identified, and a resolution plan is being set in place. Will add more update info as it becomes available, but it seems as though the issue is temporarily resolved for now.

Update... At the moment the problem has subsided, but complete analysis is still in progress.

At about 10:01 PM EST, we can experiencing a networking equipment outage. Network administrators are investigating now. Please stand by, and thank you for your patience.
