Our telephone provider, AT&T, is currently experiencing a major incoming call outage in Ohio, Texas, Minnesota, and possibly other states due to a damaged router. We do not have an estimated time for the repair to be completed.
Were any of you affected by this? Was AT&T wireless out too?

Probably not. What's really amazing is that they don't have better failover for such a large network.

Texas was the only surprising one. I mean, who gives a shit about Ohio or Minnesota? Also, did AT&T go out of their way to make their system defy any logical geographic structure?@belgariontheking said:

They did have this slogan for a short while, but it didn't catch on:
AT&T: fuck topology

Yeah, we were hit by this pretty hard in Central PA. I find it simultaneously amusing and head-scratching why those states in particular. I'd love to see their design, but then I'd probably have to be admitted to the nearest asylum afterwards...
