Planned maintenance notification. Hiboo Networks will be performing a planned software upgrade on our QIX peering router at 1250 Rene-Levesque Blvd. West, Montreal, QC on Tuesday 18 August 2026, between 00:00 and 06:00. Your internet service stays up throughout. During the window you may see one short fluctuation of up to 10 minutes, and only on traffic exchanged with our QIX peering partners: Akamai (AS20940), OVHcloud (AS16276), i3D.net (AS49544), Continent 8 (AS14537), CBC/Radio-Canada (AS32563), Fibrenoire (AS22652) and QIX route servers (AS55176). Traffic to and from every other destination, including all TorIX-peered and transit-routed traffic, is unaffected. During the fluctuation, QIX traffic reroutes automatically over our TorIX peering in Toronto and our Zayo and Hurricane Electric transit; you may notice a brief change in latency to those networks but no loss of connectivity.
- Impact: Short fluctuation - 10 minutes you may notice a brief change in latency to those networks but no loss of connectivity. Short fluctuation - 10 minutes, QIX dataflows only
- Customer Action: None required — your connection will restore automatically.
