They have a few servers back up, the link below is to the forums so you can
check there if you don't want to go through the process of patching.

With the remaining servers, it is interesting to note that they are speaking
to hardware vendors about them =)

I don't expect that it was hardware that affected all servers. More
likely is that it was a common piece of hardware, perhaps supporting a
central database, a load balancer, router or other such common piece of
equipment. I am curious as to know what exactly happened.

Lavastorm just went down again, and more worryingly when I was ejected
to the character login screen with the message Server Down, my character
was displayed as a level below the one I just reached :-|
