Update from SIM carrier 4:40 PM EDT:Unplanned Service degradation - October 17th, 2019 @ 18.30 UTC - UPDATE
Between 13:30 - 15:25 today we had a core-router network issue which resulted in a disruption to service. This was largely isolated to our non-VPN connectivity Customers. During this period your SIMs would have experienced a loss of connectivity.
This issue was related to a similar issue which occurred earlier this week. To provide corrective action we are bringing our Standby site into an Active configuration alongside our Primary site. This will provide additional capacity and help alleviate similar traffic patterns going forward.
We are also conducting an IP network review with our network technicians to ensure we can provide additional capacity and full network stability longer term.
We will continue to monitor this issue and continue to send updates.
