They don't say exactly what's broken, but Above.net did send out a notice

Subject: Network Issues US & Europe ~12:03 EDT June 12, 2004
I think someone was thinking faster than they were typing though.
At approximately 12:03 EDT widespread networking
issues. This is causing networking issues through
out our network. We are now diagnosing the
problem. We do not know what caused the failure
at this time.
Apparently networking issues are causing networking issues on their
network. I hate it when that happens.
