Hey all,
Our Internet and Internet 2 connections will be down next Tuesday at 11:30 GMT to 12:30 GMT. After the upgrade, we will have full use of the Internet 2 from my office, and that will lead to even better connectivity. It will also result in better traffic handling from my machines as well, via the McIDAS ADDE servers, and our LDM servers. Sorry for any inconvenience.

used by Network Engineers to administrate NIU Internet & networking
traffic, will be upgraded. This work is scheduled to last 1 hour and as a
result, all Internet traffic will be down.  This includes FTP and
outgoing/incoming mail services, all web traffic as well as all Internet
