2009/12/14 - Unscheduled Internet Outage
At about 2:20 this afternoon, Rhodes lost access to the Internet for reasons as yet unknown. Users will likely experience the outages as an ERR_DNS_FAIL or ERR_CONNECT_FAIL error when trying to access websites hosted off campus.

We have reported the problem to our service providers, and are awaiting feedback.
The more recent feedback that we've received was that, at approximately 3:30, Neotel were testing the link.
Access seems to have been restored, as of about 5-10 minutes ago.
