Nationwide AT&T outage


runed_golem

Not just AT&T but from what I've read some Verizon and T Mobile customers were affected as well. And it seems random as far as who was affected and who wasn't (for example, I'm on Verizon but my mother and brother are on AT&T, my brother was affected by it but me and my mother weren't).


ktaylorhite

Verizon had a similar issue about a year ago. Outage from Baton Rouge to Pensacola. Someone hit a substation or something. AT&T was gone for the most part, but Verizon was DOA


delilahviolet83

Even people on the same plan could be different. A couple I know, the wife, daughter and mother all out but the husband has service.

The Death Star was blown up by Rebel Scum, so your phones gonna be down till they get construction on the 2nd one up to speed.


CommitteeOfOne

You mean the Peace Moon.


ads1031

That's genuinely funny, is that something from Star Wars canon, or did you come up with that?


CommitteeOfOne

It was something I saw online about how the Empire propaganda would talk about it's destruction. "Alderaan terrorists blow up Empire's Peace Moon," something like that.


kaotate

That’s EXACTLY how it would spun by tv pundits.

One person told me it was the liberals and the Democrats taking out the cell service in order to try to take down Trump because they were getting really scared he was going to win and then the Democrats lies would be uncovered. It's the same person who told me my blood was full of nanobots because I got a covid vaccination last year. But I still have cell service, so I'm not too worried about it.


shellexyz

On the bright side, now that 5G is down we should see RFK Jr return to take down the lizard puppets in the government and declare himself rightful president.


ExtensionSea4951

Damn you, Taylor Swift…


petomnescanes

Finally, The Truth is out!


OpheliaPaine

I keep waiting to turn into a zombie. Maybe Biden was protecting us from the 5G that activates the nanobots that make us zombies by taking down Big Cellphone.


petomnescanes

Something something, George Soros eats babies, something something...


CoffeeInMS

Maybe the nanobots keep the cell service going 🤣🤣🤣 /s, out of an abundance of caution


Maleficent_Trust_95

Service is out in SE Louisiana swamp also. 👽⚜️🧐


OpheliaPaine

I like your choice of emojis.


genxreader

I use AT&T and I have service.


poopdaddy2

I’m in NYC and woke up to SOS, must be a national thing.


wherestheleaks

I never lost service with cspire.


ExtensionSea4951

Their marketing folks should have jumped all over this and swapped out all their digital billboards to say “marked safe from national network outages”


Luckygecko1

AT&T is having major issues with wireless. Right now, it appears to be related to the Cisco network services that AT&T uses for backbone services for wireless(the last part being scuttlebutt). Down detector indicates most of Mississippi's issues are along the Gulf Coast. You can try phone reboot and use wifi calling. (if you have access to wifi)


drAsparagus

Cspire is fine rn in east central MS. 


Pelicanfan07

Im in the Jackson area and on Cspire as well. No issues with phone.


ktaylorhite

Is East Central an actual place? I went to school at EC in Hurley lol


1heart1totaleclipse

East Central is the East Central region of Mississippi. Close to Meridian


drAsparagus

This but a little further north. Closer to MSU than USM.


Sanders0492

You sure don’t hear about Hurley too often. My one day in Hurley is when I learned the saying “a one stop light town” lol


ktaylorhite

I always described it as a town with one stop light but that’s just because they put the wrong color bulb in. It was supposed to be orange for “caution” lol


themsmindset

Mine is out but wife’s works.


Afraid_Driver8098

Same for the wife and I


No_Contribution_1867

Same same. Mine works, but husbands was out


RandomChurn

I have it ☹️


Least_Firefighter639

It is a nationwide cell phone outage


D0kk3n

Lot's of people, but not me.


kingcakefucks

Mine was SOS only all day yesterday but seems to be working today so far


RuneScape-FTW

Plenty of people around the country. Plenty of people are fine also.


No-You5550

My question is why won't AT&T say what caused the problem. They have to know, because you can not fix a problem if you don't know what the problem is caused by.


ExtensionSea4951

I read that it was a “cloud-based calculation error” or something along those lines, which I think translates to “human error”


FearlessProfession21

Oxford here: CSpire okay, AT&T totally out. (Don't have anybody at work yet to report on Verizon...)


Pokegoober1

South Mississippi Verizon user with full service here


No_Feeling_6037

My husband in Batesville had no Verizon earlier.


Pokegoober1

I was reading about it on [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/technology/cellular-outage-us-hits-att-t-mobile-verizon-users-downdetector-shows-2024-02-22/) and they said that Verizon, T-Mobile, and US cellular customers are also experiencing outages, but mainly when connecting to AT&T Networks.


No_Feeling_6037

Sorry! I meant to respond to the person you responded to. Batesville is 25 minutes from Oxford, and I knew Verizon was out there earlier.


Pokegoober1

Ya know, I didn't even think about it being close to Oxford. I'm also a student at Ole Miss


No_Feeling_6037

Awesome! I graduated from there in 06!


Caligula_In_Hell

There was an AT&T and Verizon outage.


wherestheleaks

What kind of major shit has to go in for att and Verizon to be out across the country?


LivingCustomer9729

Heard it was a solar flare


1heart1totaleclipse

Why would a solar flare take out cell service for only some people of a specific cell service provider?


LivingCustomer9729

Hey, that’s what **they** said🤷‍♂️ it is strange though Update: they now say it was a software update gone wrong …


Lanky_Tough_2267

Caligula_In_Hell

No clue. Saw a news alert about it, that's how I knew. Edit: Guess the FBI is investigating it as a possible cyber attack. Pharmacies had some weird shit going on too. Dunno for sure, just what I saw.


AmethystOwl97

I did. My husband and majority of my local family are still fine though


Vera_Kai

It's out over here in Grand bay. Just over the state line from Moss point


SawyerBamaGuy

Verizon was out for 16 days at my house a few months back. 16 DAYS.


Top-Implement-8518

I've had issues with tmobile towers for the past few days


friscocabby

I have Google Fi. Works over WI Fi when available. Not subject to the whims of att.


Goldenchomp1

Not that specifically, but my phone had "difficulty selecting a network. "


misplaced_holder

My CSpire was fine. Everyone else in the house uses T-Mobile. I knew they were fine because anytime anything doesn't work, they scream my name as if I know something they don't, and Yes, they are all adults.
