Anyone else dealing with an internet outage today?
Centurylink is having issues here in the Salt Lake area (according to down detector). Down detector shows similar issues with Facebook, Amazon, Verizon, and about 20 other companies.

Back to full speed here this morning, for now, but here in TN it sure has been erratic and quite slow at times. I noticed it starting just before Christmas.
I chalk it up to all those kids with new iThingies playing on the web along with work vacations and school out for the holidays.


Endeavor to persevere.

Yes, going again, but first thing this morning. Centurylink in central Oregon.

Started in Portland for me around 1:40 AM in the morning. Alternated between no connectivity at all to very, very slow (pages would partially load). Fine now. Have not seen an explanation from Centurylink for why though.

If they are, they probably can't answer....

I've noticed no problems with Spectrum, but I didn't get on line until around 1100.

There seems to be a major phone system outage in many parts of the country.

I wonder, is that related to the foul weather in the midwest, or perhaps simply to old infrastructure?

It is those federal workers shopping. According to Trump it is mostly Democrats.

Residential Century Link was down this morning in southwest Ohio. I'm getting ready to head home now. I'm interested to see what I find.

It was a nationwide outage, but comcast's video network may have been down, too, at least according to comments on downdetector.com.

Yep. Seems like it was a Centurylink issue.
