Internettrafficreport isn't the most reliable (normally there are lots of zeroes on their graphs), but it does indicate a large change in some numbers.

Another place to check for good information is http://www.outages.org/

There have been a few incidents as of the past few days. Last night, there was a nationwide outage from Frontier that has since been resolved.

The day prior there was a triple failure in the Midwest as reported http://vielmetti.typepad.com/vacuum/2012/10/windstream-outag... that affected lots of services in a large area.

All 3 of the listed Wisconsin routers are small businesses. 2 are currently listed as being down, and have been for months now. However, their web pages are up, they probably just changed around their IP's or something, and never notified.

I could see a core router at UW being a major measure of the internet, but not some small consulting company in a small town..
