Internet outage?

We are currently seeing reports of an Internet outage in parts of Ontario and New Brunswick. We are currently investigating ...(1/2)  ^SM

Fastest way to get an answer is to just call Rogers directly and speak to tech support, just ask them if their are any outages in Barrie and they will likely ask you for an account name/number.

1-877-764-3771

It's really no rush, I'm just curious. It seems confirmed from all the Twitter postings. I'll just wait it out, they can do without internet for the time being, haha.

Edit: Looks like people called in and they are confirming areas north of Toronto are experiencing an outage. No ETA on a fix.

Seems to be out here in Ottawa. Modem is still online but no DHCP.

You can probably blame me for this one. I'm at home because I was waiting for a delivery so I thought I could work remotely but then my equipment started acting weird, then the cable went out and I need the VPN tunnel to the office to be up.

You're pretty close to me mlerner and I'm still online, I'm up in Craig Henry.

I'm fairly certain we're on different cable headends.

The only good thing is I use Telus for my wireless so at least I can tether for general internet..

Right, I got my border lines mixed up. If I remember correctly you're down around QGP which is on RCHRD whereas I'm on FLFRD.

reply to Anzio
Yup. Outage here as well (Kanata, ON). At least i've got Telus tethering too.

Wonder if its just a DNS issue like last time.

If so, the quick work around is to change your DNS to point to google at 8.8.8.8

I can't even get an IP after I released my address. Assuming I don't have other issues, DNS is the last thing it could be.

Down in Aurora.
On hold for 40 Minutes so far, no answer.
