At 9:16 AM CST, the WiscNet NOC saw a drop in service for multiple sites. However many of these sites recovered before all affected sites could be gathered and notified. We were later notified this outage occurred due to an upgrade to a site which caused a broadcast storm. This upgrade was reversed as soon as the broadcast storm was detected which brought most services back up. If you were affected by this outage and still currently do not have service, please contact the WiscNet NOC.
