Yes I have two customers over there – one in VA and the other WV.  I did not do 
traceroutes but I was observing strange activity.  Both the PE and the CPE 
would respond to ICMP but VPN tunnel to corporate office down and my monitoring 
was down.  I did notice the outages on downdetector over several states so I 
figured I would give it some time to resolve itself.  My two offices just 
returned about 10 minutes ago.  Thanks for the info about the routing loop.  
The Comcast rep I spoke with seemed oblivious to the situation.  We’ll see what 
happens.

Best Regards,
Josh

Subject: [outages] Comcast Ashburn Backbone Issues

I am seeing what looks like a possible routing loop or some other routing issue 
going on with Comcast’s backbone in Ashburn, VA. I am a customer in Western 
Pennsylvania and I am unable to reach certain destinations such as

 This has been going on for about an hour afaik. Traceroutes are playing ping 
pong between cr2.ashburn.va.ibone.comcast.netand either cs2 or 
cs4.ashburn.va.ibone.comcast.net

An example MTR to

I have no way of knowing if this is isolated to the mid-Atlantic region or if 
it’s a widespread issue. Interestingly enough, Downdetector is showing a large 
spike in down reports across a wide range of services all at the same time.

Is anyone else experiencing this?
