Ours is out, and my wife was on Facebook and she said a lot of her friends back in the Midwest are experiencing problems with their cable and internet... She was telling me "something weird" is going on.

It happens. Sometimes not for sinister reasons either. A tower can get a DNS/IP/MAC block or ban just as easily as a website or PC's IP and end up on a blacklist; interupting service. Or 'timing them out'. It could happen from something as simple a a mass spam email service (telemarketing VOIP) that used the towers IP adress as proxy to hide their actual location.

Internet servers and providers and other issues can arise. I remember once upon a time when I was on dial up there was a day when I could only access sites in Australia and it took over a day for them to fix it and it was a messed up trunk line in Texas. I don't have Cable tv haven't had it since 2002.
