How are you so sure?

It's highly likely that this is a cyber attack.

FoxBiz said 71,000 people effected - that has to be a typo right?


They are referring to people self-reporting on downdetector.com - they are not saying that only 71,000 people are affected.

I would either call in sick or kill myself if I worked customer service for ATT today. The only saving grace is the dumbest of their clientele aren’t intelligent enough to use a phone without cellular data.

My wife’s iphone is working too while mine is down. Seems like it’s selective in some way.

One of my favorite hobbies during times with technical issues is to watch people try to diagnose it.

It seems like if your SIM or eSIM serial number is between this and this you lost service but if your outside those numbers you have service like ATT systems crashed but only a certain area of people that the SIM serial numbers are in

Just my thoughts

What about ATM Machines and peoples alarm systems that use cellular instead of WiFi


Believe it or not a lot of alarm systems still use GSM (2G) or circuit switch tech. So this would technically be a different core from LTE/NR(5G). However, if not, I could see it being an issue.

ATT core is compromised of A LOT of Network Elements even before it hits the MME (which is routing).

From that other post where the anon source is speaking, it sounds a lot like either X2 Handovers are an issue (which technically might be Software related) or some sort of ATT proprietary thing happening at the switch that only someone who works in ATT would know about.

The carriers TMO / VZW / ATT have a TON of proprietary shite.

I hope they get this fixed, we have dinner plans tonight and the LAST thing I want to do is have to sit there and talk to my family.

Apparently the outage hasn’t slowed the spam callers
I’ve had 7 crap calls so far this morning
