Re: Another fiber cut near Taiwan ? due to Typhoon Morakot ?

I'm seeing high latency and some packet loss via multiple providers from the
US to Singapore, matching what we saw a few days ago although not as bad
(ie, packet loss is only about 5%, down from the 40% we were seeing a few
days ago).

At that time the cause was a cable fault somewhere in/near Japan, but at
this stage I'm not sure if this is the same problem or not.

Anyone in the know ?

I can't find any published reports, but multiple internal reports of
massive congestions from South Asian region to the US, and failure alarms.

Given that Typhoon Morakot made landfall near Taiwan yesterday, this
could impact APCN2, C2C, EAC, SMW3 amongst others.

any updates are appreciated.
