Router Upgrade Scheduled On Friday 27 April, between 1am to 2am, there will be a brief interruption in Columbia's connection to the Internet so some failing hardware can be replaced. The outage is expected to be brief, probably only about 10 minutes, and is expected to correct the problem which caused Internet outages earlier in the week. The work was only partially successful, so further work will need to be scheduled in the future. 23 April 2001 Portion of Modem Pool Down Forty-six of the 713 modems operated by AcIS are currently out of service. MCI, the service provider, expects to have the problem solved by the end of the day today.
All modems are now back in service.
Reloading the software on our main router solved the problem. Personal Web pages will remain available during the upgrade, since they are stored elsewhere. All services on the secure Web server, including CUBmail and CUBboards, will also be available. You will be able to send mail and see mail you've already received, but will not be able to see new mail during this period. The wireless network will be unavailable from 5-7pm on Monday, April 9.
