Our primary WAN link to our datacenter has been backhoed or something, because it's down. We are instead currently accessing the WAN (and the Internet through the WAN) via our backup datalink, which is a bird-killing Terabeam laser. This is hella cool, except that today is overcast and cloudy and rainy, and the laser is cutting out and dropping packets like crazy. If this keeps up, we're going to have to switch to our tertiary system--an experimental CPIP link (described in RFC 1149).
