   Update: Following our investigation, we have confirmed that this incident was caused by a hardware failure within our upstream datacentre provider's network infrastructure. Our provider has successfully restored services by migrating network traffic onto redundant infrastructure. We will continue to monitor the environment closely while they complete their post-incident investigation and implement any necessary corrective actions. We apologise for any inconvenience this incident may have caused and appreciate your patience while the issue was resolved.
