Not much information at this time. It hit all major carriers (using their own towers). Anyone have more information at this time? Sounds like it was early a.m.. I don't have a time frame.

My son texted us from his jobsite this morning letting us know he was using his phone as a hotspot since he was the only one with service.
I know Starlink is also having problems and a lot more company's. Starlink could be explained by the radio blackout they were having over Africa and the Pacific. Tim Poole had a video this morning. If you don't have the app download Downdetector it will show you where the outages are.

Started around 3:45 am. Mostly affecting ATT but other carriers are reporting issues as well but most of the other carriers are saying their issues are with people trying to contact ATT customers. The affected people get the SOS screen on their phone and it’s also affecting 911 calls. I’m sure this is some type of government sponsored “test run” but I’m also sure they will blame Putin…. The geniuses said if unable to contact 911 have a friend call them or use a landline🤦♂️😳🤦♂️🤷♂️…

Yes, Check out solar weather. There have been 2 solar flares in the last 24 hrs, mostly affecting the Western part of the country. HF radio in Georgia was good this morning.

N.O.W. Claimed A.T.&T. said it was spreading. This was at 9:35. a.m. Not all involved their carriers calling others outside the network, but the issue was more prominent.
One theory was the addition of 8G was stressing the older systems. They had not located the issue. The words cyber attack were mentioned by the company, but they admitted they were clueless at that time.
Let's give the immigrants more phones to hang on 24/7. That will help. I bet they attacking A.T.&T. and demanding new phones. Can't reach 911? hmmmm.
Back to work....
