We lost 2 of our 4 bandwidth scanners between Saturday at 18:00 UTC and
Tuesday at 14:00 UTC.  We need at least 3 scanner results for clients to
use the measured bandwidth values instead of the self-reported ones.

Looks like we should try harder to keep all 4 bandwidth scanners working!

Thanks for reporting!
