    Identified

    We have identified the source of the connectivity issues. Many of Amazon AWS's servers are unreachable from our network, pointing towards a routing issue with an upstream provider or Amazon. We are working with Amazon engineers to resolve the issue.
    This will affect customer connections due to the fact that a large amount of websites and services are hosted on Amazon's web servers.
