Four hour Comcast outage yesterday, entire state of Florida

Post by FlyingPenguin »

Los, Reno? Were you guys affected? It was out here from around 3pm to 7:30pm. All my houses.

Was even affecting my backup Verizon hot spot a bit. It was noticeably slower and laggy. Either Verizon uses Comcast as one of their back bones, or else Verizon was getting loaded down by everyone using them as a backup.

Disney probably severed some fiber while physically seceding from Florida.
