Steam having problem connecting to the Steam Server

NOTE: This is happening after the Taiwan thing , else everything was OK.

My ISP "Pacnet" also says that there are some problems which are not been

taken care of.

Steampowered.com is also not opening at my place rest all websites are working.

This is really irritating , i cant even game in offline mode since i didnt save the login.

Also my MSN and Yahoo Messengers are not working properly taking ages

to login.

Are other pacenet users or other isp users to facing the same problems.

EDIT:

Found this

Internode Games Network News: "Steam Is Currently Having Trouble Connecting to the Steam Servers"

Yes that part is true. Many sub-oceanic optical cables have been cut cause of the earthquake. Worst effect Taiwan, Japan-HongKong , and some more... check the news sites for more details.

SIFY ISP is been sending msgs and alerting users about the same. And also that the browsing experience will be effected.

Hope they fix this quicky.

Now our connections are routed though other links... ofcourse they must hav already reached bottle neck.
