Final Update Residents of the United States woke up this morning to widespread outages in AT&T cell service.
AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile suffer massive nationwide cell outages
Problems with the telecom giant began pouring into crowd-based outage monitor Down Detector at about 0400 Eastern (0100 Pacific) and haven't let up since, with more than 73,000 AT&T outage reports filed at the time of writing.
T-Mobile US and Verizon subscribers also reported problems, but they appear to be knock-on effects of the main AT&T split, such as T-Mo users not being able to get through to AT&T numbers and blaming their own carrier.
"T-Mobile did not experience an outage. Our network is operating normally," a T-Mo USA spokesperson told The Register. "Down Detector likely reflects challenges our customers had when trying to connect to users on other networks."
