Anyone ever had arp storms on a home network?

I've had something trigger every device into asking 'who has xyz ip tell [Mac]'. It made the network unusable and even rebooting systems it would come back since as soon as one device asked the question (sent the broken arp packet) all other devices decided they too needed to know.

The solution that worked was to flip the circuit breaker for the whole house and reset every network device at once.
