I wish the internet would go down

All of it. For a few days. We all could use a break from it

Re: I wish the internet would go down

I would almost like to witness it just for the dependency factor. Its similar to a power outage ... only worse, for business.

Now, there's a thought.

AT&T wirelesses heavy bandwidth usage iphone hogs!!!

The reason why AT&T wireless had an outage it's very simple there was more traffic than AT&T wirelesses network infastructure could handle their ip backbone system was overloaded they still run on 10 gig per second something should tell them to wake up and smell the $$$$$$$$ fresh air in the death star and upgrade their ip backbone system to 40 gigs a second with cisco high bandwidth routers otherwise the same problem will happen contiously over time again and again it should of told them something by now!!!

I'm betting the 9 year old I just saw on "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" could form a paragraph better than you.

I'm sure we'll never know,

But I'd really like to know how the hell they've configured their network so that a single failure can bring down eighteen states.

This reminds me of the "national outage" that Comcast had due their brilliant idea of centralizing their DNS servers.

@rr.com

watch this funny stuff!!!

check it out if you have a AT&T wireless phone-pda phone their network is heading for another crash. I did a speed test 302 kbps a second, and it's obvious bandwidth hogs. I give them one more hour another network outage is gonna happen, I promise ya that!!!

Fun working for the death star

It was interesting getting a major update on our laptops on the same day the GPRS goes on the blink. The dispatchers were way overworked today.

Way to go boys. I love my company!

Anyone notice the time being off?

I noticed that my phone last night around 6pm MST, was displaying time an hour ahead so it was saying 7-something PM instead. Probably related to the outage I'd guess.
