Britain's broadband ADSL service was plunged into darkness this morning following a catastrophic failure of BT's network. Details are still sketchy but it's understood that nearly all ADSL connections across the country are down - including those provided by service providers other than BT - along with some unmetered dial-up services. According to a BT spokeswoman, the company has "lost part of its Colossus IP backbone" network.
