Houston Area Wide Outtage:AT&T - 05-28-2009, 01:38 PM

Had connectivity issues all morning. I work remotely for my real day job... And it was moving slow!!! Normally it's an issue up in Milwaukee, but this time it wasn't. After a 30 minute conversation with a person reading from a script and a 30 min line test... They finally tell me it's a widespread issue.

Thank God for the I-phone!

Anyone else having problems?

Thankfully no problems here in DFW. We use at&t for our business access.

Are you talking about AT&T cellular, land line, internet?

DSL - it seems to be working now - although I haven't gotten the 'it's working' call that they promised!

It was working all day - just RIDICULOUSLY slow. I have DSL Pro - because I work from home - and if my DH is off, he STEALS my bandwidth playing WoW... ;-)

But I was getting like .10 upload speed... and I work remotely, which made working remotely NOT a possibility...

I have AT&T U-Verse and never had a problem: a good friend is still on DSL in the Katy area. He never said anything about trouble, but Houston is a large area.
