Weird.  I would call OIT.  Checking the changes that have gone through
recently, the only NETWORK changes have been changing the UPS power cables
to switches in various buildings (TMCB, ESC, etc) and they upgraded the
content filter two days ago.  I dunno which of those would cause your
problems, but at least it's a little more info than "OIT broke something
with their ISP" messages that we saw a little while ago.  I'm surprised (and
a little skeptical) that OIT was making changes in their connections to any
of their ISP's without going through the proper channels...because there
hasn't been anything come across the notifications...and with something
remotely large, a notification goes out.  They even throw them up when they
are changing the UPS cables and that is at 9-10 pm in on-campus
buildings....about 0 people affected.

Switched portion is most of lower wymount....they changed the hubs to
switches.  Upper wymount still has hubs.  Switched portions are 100x more
stable for obvious reasons.
