Lexington, MA | I had a hunch My parents called around 6:30 this evening complaining that their internet wasn't working (they're in Atlanta; I'm in Pittsburgh). So after determining that they did have DSL sync, I pretty much assumed it was a DNS problem. I walked my dad through the process of configuring the computer to use OpenDNS, and everything was fine. Glad to discover that my hunch was correct, even if it has been a major pain for BellSouth users tonight.  | |

| | I didn't even notice any problems... I always use OpenDNS, so I didn't even notice there was a problem... At least AT&T can keep their network up and running, even if their DNS servers are a bit spotty... | |

| |  Chicago affected

 | | | Re: Chicago affected and now a mention on CNN.com:
At the Internet forum DSLreports.com, people in several of the affected states posted reports of problems Monday night. Many said it appeared to be an issue with AT&T's domain name servers, which help direct Internet traffic to its destinations.

| | DNS outage I'm highly mad, I lost an ebay auction due to not being able to bid on a very hard to find item, I wonder if it's worth sending an angry letter to AT&T, Though they could never replace what I lost out on, Doubt I'll ever see another for sale. | |
|
| | ATT DSL outage 12/3/07 I read the outage was fixed about 10pm Monday. NOT SO. I had trouble Monday night, all day Tuesday, Tuesday night I gave up after countless hours trying to diagnose and clean my system. Wednesday morning all seems well. Glen | |
|
| | Router Problems Due to the AT&T outage my router needs to be re-configured and seeing as how the router is out of warranty and I'm not the computer savvy type person, I'm going to have to either buy a new router or pay Netgear to help me re-configure the router.  | |
