    Time to get an alternate communication source.

    This is going to get fun.
    It is affecting many customers south of Houston too.

    Maybe a small solar flare that we don’t know about, or, it’s finally happening… the apocalypse

      Not the apocalypse. Just a major form of communication has been shut down. My bet is a hacker caused it, not a solar flare. I hope the resolve the issue brfore the masses wake up..

                Does night vision still work during the 12 days of darkness?

                  Could be the government controlling the communication (a small litmus test), just like they do in other countries they have the ability to turn it on and shut if off.

                    I just tried my ATT phone, it texts, calls and I can surf the net

                    Then again mine is an iPhone 7 so maybe it is too old to be affected?

                            Is it working via the cellular network, or are you connected to wifi?

                              Att was down or at least my phone was on sos mode at 0300 ish this morning. Service came back up approximately an hour or two later. Not sure if the recent Apple software update had something to do with it.

                              FWIW last night/this morning, when I checked the att outage areas Houston showed up with a bunch of reported outages… ironically, my area in west Texas didn’t show any issues but my phone was only working on WiFi…
