We've got two Internet links on our campus, a 10gig fiber link through our Roman ISP, and a 1gig link through the Vatican.

Right now our Rome is down. Not just our link, or our ISP, but ALL of Rome.

That means all our traffic is routing though the Vatican link, and it's grossly oversubscribed.

And I'm stuck in the quarantine room, trying to do remote video work over what has become a dial-up connection. 🤣

@PadreSJ If we're going back to dialup and video, I better dig out my old copy of RealPlayer.

@PadreSJ is the Vatican link not upstreamed from Rome? We have 3 connections at work, a 5gb, a 1gb, and a wireless 100mb. We found out the hard way they all run down the same conduit up stream when a Fiber Seeking Backhoe got hungry.
