Verizon Wireless Users Again Face Outages
This Time Impacting Both 3G and 4G Users
As Verizon scrambles to build their LTE network they're causing significantly more large-scale outages than we're used to seeing from the company, users recently dealing with a third significant nationwide LTE outage. Make that possibly four, as several EVDO and LTE users this morning wrote in to note that Verizon Wireless's data network is once again inaccessible. Verizon hasn't made an official statement yet, but they're confirming the outage with customers and aren't giving an outage explanation or ETA at the moment. A quick look at the Verizon Wireless support forums indicates that the outage is impacting people all over the country.

No Outage Here

Kansas City area. No 3G outage here. I'm not within 4G coverage so not sure about that.

I saw on another site this morning that it might just be limited to a few states.

No 4G this AM

Looked at my phone this morning, running on 3G telling me I have a SIM card issue (so maybe just random). Reboot did not fix it. Central MN.

Re: Same in Central North Carolina

Woke up this morning and had no data, not even 1X. 3g flashes on every hour or so, but no 4g at all. If I did not have wifi I would be dead in the water. Come on get this fixed and keep it fixed!

No 4G or 3G

No 3G or 4G service in State College, PA. Had some 3G for a little while but just was very slow and then reverted to just showing bars on my Thunderbolt.

Re: Fios Area?

Sorry, have been busy. There is no FIOS in State College and will never be in my eyes. PSU is here and the students do provide a great area to provide 4G for. The network speeds are usually a few Mib slower when they are in session. When out for like holidays speeds are much better.

'Most Reliable Network'

Two major data outages in less than a month. If they don't stop the 'most reliable network' campaign, may be grounds for other carriers to challenge that claim.

Re: 'Most Reliable Network'

VZW is starting to sound like AT&T when they deployed 3G now.

It's back

I'm using the LG USB modem. It wouldn't register 4G this morning but would fall back to EVDO. It just registered and connected 4G.

Oh well

I think you miss the entire point of blogs if you're complaining about biased reporting.
