AT&T Problems yesterday (and continuing today...)

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Anyone have any problems with AT&T communication yesterday or today ?

We are on a fairly large frame relay network for AS/400 and LAN traffic
and AT&T took some kind of hit yesterday around 12:15 in the afternoon
(EST). We have sites across the US and Canada and 99 % were affected.
IDSN dial backup was even out at the majority of sites (we were told
this this - backup - was affevted...) !

MOST of our sites are back up this morning...

The news this morning said that "QT&T had a problem with a high-speed
segment. It affected many US businesses. ATM machines were hit, but were
OK now. AT&T said MOST business were OK because they had backup in
place"... hmmmm, we had backup in place and for the most part it/their
backup DIDN'T WORK !!!!
