Re: [OOL] Slow/Timeouts today in CT

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.

I see on the Line Monitors that your area went to hell around mid-day:

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

This has been an issue since 3:30 am server monitor system woke me up, in Stratford,CT still an issue, my clients in Stamford, CT and Westchester county still having the issue, Someone just had to mess with the routers last night.... looks like someone blew away all the static routes on a major Router in the OOL NYC core...

Seem to be ok here... for now.

Anyone know of a realtime map that shows internet problems at least in the tri-state area? Is that even possible?

I wonder if this is why my local Dunkin Donuts wasn't taking plastic this morning.

Yep had issues way up here in Hyde Park as well, so it covered pretty much the entire footprint.

Well, I tried a ping test and it told me it was unable to do it because it couldn't connect to the server. Most of them I tried. Idk. Still connect to certain things. Some stuff is fixed but not all. That is a long list of places and miles that can't do anything too.

See the replies below, some people lost big bucks thanks to this prolonged outage and this board represents probably 0% of OOL users when you round.

A 14 hour problem is a big deal.

I'm sure people did. CV no where guarantees 100% always on service. I feel bad for them, no doubt, but 14 hours of no service does not equate to not paying for 706 hours of service.
