[RTC List] [2] AT&T DSL Outage?

[John W. Ennis]

I agree with Chris - do this Google Search "fiber outage Humboldt County"
and realize we have a lot of talking but so far no action.  It is time the
politicians and business leaders get on "get'r done express"

The fiber connection was lost today. The airport (where I was flying out to
Baltimore) was issuing hand written boarding passes and luggage routing
slips. Cell phones couldn't reach outside the area and most lines when I
tried to call in from SFO connect to a recording announcing "technical
difficulties." Oddly, one or two lines into the area actually worked.

 

Let's use this as a rallying cry to accelerate redundant fiber. This is NOT
an option. Hughstat, satellite, dial-up and other back-ups cannot sustain
the whole community. This is serious stuff. Thank goodness the airport
learned a few manual workarounds this time or else connection to air traffic
and weather would have grounded all flights. Our hospitals, first responders
and a lot more rely on connectivity to operate.

 

Let's "git 'er done."

Hughsat is keeping our team working. Strongly suggest it as a stopgap for
those companies that need to stay up for their clients outside the area, or
here locally.

AT&T DSL service has been out in Cutten since approximately 9 a.m.  
this morning. I'm using AT&T's backup dialup service to post this, so POTS
is still working. Anyone else lose DSL this morning?
