Default Question about Adsense downtime

I've noticed that the Adsense ads are down several times throughout an average day. Instead of an ad, there will just be a small frame where the ad should be and it will say "Page cannot be displayed". Not just on my website, but on any website with adsense ads. Why is this?

It's frustrating because I've got a sidebar with the skyscraper ad and when the Adsense ads are down, then the sidebar is practically empty and the site looks very bland. It's making me consider just taking the skyscraper ad down altogether.

PS - I am assuming this isn't just something that is happening with my own internet connection, and that others are noticing the ads are down often throughout the day too. However if it's just my computer, then please excuse my ignorance on the matter.

I believe you can select some free ads (charity ads like The United Way) to use as filler for when your # of impressions for the day are used up.

No, this has nothing to do with impressions being used up.

I'm talking about Adsense simultaneously not working on all websites that have adsense ads. Instead of the ad showing up, there will be a frame that says "Page cannot be displayed". This occurs periodically throughout the day (atleast for me, but my internet connection is working fine so it makes me think I'm not the only one seeing this downtime). That is what I'm asking about.

Edit: Here is a picture showing what I'm referring to:

Are you sure its a problem with your website, as opposed to some issue with your personal connection not being able to hit google at the time?

That's what I'm not sure about.

It seems strange that I wouldn't be able to load the ads though.. my internet connection is working fine 99% of the time, and when this error occurs I am perfectly able to view other sites. It's not browser related either since it occurs in FireFox as well.
