ATT Network Outage Not Caused By Cyberattack, Company Says
Feds Investigating Nationwide Cellular Service Disruption
Tens of Thousands of Customers Affected
WEB ATT issued a statement Thursday night to explain that the telecoms widespread network outage earlier in the day wasnt caused by a cyberattack. The outage, which began in the early morning hours, left many ATT customers without cellphone service.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is investigating the outage, which affected customers across the United States. The FCC said it is working with ATT to determine the cause of the outage and to ensure that the company is taking steps to restore service.
ATT said in its statement that the outage was caused by a "technical issue" but did not provide any further details. The company said it is working to restore service as quickly as possible.
T-Mobile and Verizon, two other major U.S. wireless carriers, said their networks were unaffected by ATTs outage. Customers who reported outages may have been experiencing issues with their devices or with their local cell towers.
