| Today around 5pm Central Time, everything from *.tw stopped

| stopped responding.  Does anybody know anything about this outage?

So I got more information now.  There was a cable cut off the shores
of Shanghai.  This cable goes to Japan/China/Taiwan/Hong Kong.  Guess
we won't have good cable connectivity for a few weeks....until
they pull the cables off the sea floor and fix it.

| P.S. I want to say that Hinet.net is extremely clueless.  We've
| been crying for their routers to resolve for years, and they refuse
| to do it.   In addition, the email/usenet spams, open relays, etc.

P.S. #2: I still want to say that I hate Hinet.
