Yeah. They had yet another power outage. The fourth in 16 months.

Luckily we have already begun plans to leave their facility.

Anyone hear of any issues on the T-Mobile network? Seems as if we cannot reach anyone with a T-Mobile cell phone. Dialing out works sporadically, but calls drop frequently.

Thanks,

We are also seeing this in the Metro NY market.

T-Mobile has admitted the outage. Apparently T-Mobile phones cannot receive calls or texts, even from other T-Mobile phones:

But the good news is that they apparently added a 'feature' when you go to pay your bill:

We're using T-Mobile here, no issues reported. I have staff at sites
in Virginia, California, and Arizona.

This was brought up on the outages list. T-Mobile is currently experiencing
large scale outbound voice and data outages across the nation right now. No
current ETA, estimates are several hours.

Voice service works in the Austin market but SMS is down.

This thread suggests something major died: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1585834

Illinois is experiencing the outtage as well looks to be all of the U.S.

Thanks. Experiencing the inability to reach several personnel.

Thanks,

There's been a little chatter about it over on outages. (outages.org)

Next time can you start a new message instead of replying to something,
then removing the body/subject. Most modern mail clients use message
references that allow threaded conversations to happen. And how there's
a t-mobile conversation happening under a thread about a he.net failure...

Hard down in Fairfax, VA here. Inbound calls are met with a fast busy (no
path) signal. Outbound calls fail.

Inbound/outbound SMS text has not worked since at least 6:00PM EST.

Surprisingly the IP network seems to still be up. BlackBerry specific
functions such as BlackBerry email (BIS) and BBM still work. Web browsing
still works.

Seems their UMA (GSM over TCP/IP) servers are down too. Pretty bad.

Thank you for posting this. I have a G1 and have randomly seen this
exact picture pop up on my screen without explanation. I had
previously assured myself I was going crazy since I was never able to
reproduce the glitch in front of anyone.

I also noticed an outage here in Colorado, however the service appears to be
back for us now, at least incoming and outgoing calls, plus data is
available.

How long can they go on those 3000 gallons under their current
load?

No date on that 'press release' but the way back machine helps put it
somewhere in 2002. A lot of good this "Alameda" sized generator has done
recently...
