West Coast broken / Sprint problems

Erik Amundson

Mud slides? Fiber cuts? What the heck? All my west-coast lines went

splat a while ago...

Got confirmation from my Sprint service manager that there's a fairly
major cut. I quote,

  "Currently, Sprint has been impacted by a major network event
(fiber cut) on the West Coast. This fiber cut has impacted both
data and voice services. I will provide updates ASAP...."

This was followed up about 8 minutes later with, "The fiber cut occurred
outside of Phoenix. The fiber techs should have arrive at 4pm CT."

Since $employer uses Sprint exclusively for WAN and voice services, I've
lost everything in Arizona and California. I've also noticed spotty
service in Westminster, CO.

Good times.
