I'm in Yonkers NY, near the NYC line and I am also having Intermittent connection problems. So it appears to be a fairly large problem. |

I just got off the phone with tech support and they said they were having an outage throughout CT that had been going on all day. They said they were working on it but had no estimate as to when they would be back to normal. Guess it is time to go home and work from my internet connection there (non-OOL). |

My OOL has been totally down since 9:00 AM. I am in Rvierdale/Bronx, also right near (2 blocks) from the Yonkers line. Prior to 9, service was intermittent, as others have reported. |

Everything was fine here till about 11am. Then the modem went off line and has been down ever since. It just goes through it's power on sequence over and over, even when power cycled.
I am across the street from the NY Botanical gardens in Bronxwood. I have boost plus, no TV or phone. I am using my Clearwire 4g backup service, which pretty much sucks, but it's better than nothing as I have online stuff to do.
When I finally got through to tech support I got a recording that they are aware of the outage and are working on it. Looks like this "outage" is spreading and not getting better.
Seems like this is a major OOL FUBAR! Wonder whether we will ever know what happened. |

It certainly is spreading. Before only a few sites weren't being you routed properly but now huge swaths of the internet are now inaccessible. And yeah their IVR had been updated to say they are aware of the issue but it's only getting worse. I have no doubt my modem will completely lose sync in the next hour or so by the way things are deteriorating. |

My brother in the Bronx just told me he is having trouble to go to any site. Not totally offline but slow as hell; Google takes 15 mins. to load. Tried power cycling everything but no dice. |

Been a disaster here all day long. Sometimes it's up, sometimes it's down. When it is up, can't access half the internet or a site will just time out.
The length of this outage is unacceptable, we are hamstrung here and have been all day.
I really wish Cablevision didn't have a monopoly in my area, would drop it for FiOS in an instant.

My remote book keepers can't do payroll today because of this. I'm on my LTE iPad's personal hotspot in the meanwhile. Speeds are so good I hardly notice i'm on LTE! |

I wish optimum would give an update. I sat on hold then did silly troubleshooting with tech. She had no idea or info on the outage. |

I just spoke with them and they still have no ETA. They mentioned something about it being a hardware issue and waiting on the Cisco guys. |

It's funny that people are commenting/complaining on twitter to @cablevision which is actually Cablevisión Argentina. |

I find this one funny... ... I know when the internet goes down it's annoying, but it's funny how some people think a few hours of outage equates to not paying for an entire month. |

How can you not have spare hardware ready to go if you're running an ISP?
Does OOL offer service credits at all? |

OP should change the Subject of the original post to include NY et.al. on top of CT so that other thread makers will look in here. |

I can't change it but maybe a MOD can change it to:
Internet Slow/Timeouts on Cablevision/OOL today
or whatever they prefer.
Odd thing though my voice modems weren't affected (8 lines total). Good thing though as business would have been shutdown.
The other thing though, I wonder how much money was lost in retail today. Everywhere I went to couldn't do credit/debit cards (I had cash but just heard people talking) since internet was down as well.
My bosses design store lost sales today as nobody walks around with $10,000 in cash or go pull it out the ATM. LOL. Some of the stuff in there cost that much (rich little towns around here) so when they couldn't process cards, the customers just left.
Seems to be working now though as of 4:33pm EST |
