Just curious. Has anyone had any trouble, this morning, connecting to the internet? Might just be in my area, central Indiana. Was down for about an hour. Thought I'd check it out.
All was fine here in Texas.
Had trouble first thing here in CT. I think it’s back.
Okay here in Florida ...
“The Internet” (backbone routers & lots and lots of fiber) doesn’t “go down” per se...you’re connection to the Internet is another thing. Your ISP is? Indiana looks generally OK...Missouri is looking bad and the East coast is still fixing up after the storms:

ISP is AT&T.
Thanks for the link. I’ll check it out.
Also, thanks to everyone else for their responses.
Are you logged in?
I expect that one day, maybe soon, there will be a major Internet failure that will result in a massive number of computers worldwide not being able to connect.
That’s what spooks me every time this happens.
Someone may have bumped a DSLAM cable in your local AT&T CO (Central Office)...happened to me once in awhile when I had “regular” AT&T DSL...I am now on U-Verse “Super DSL”. They tend to do maintenance in the early mornings, and that is when things get “bumped”! Good Luck!
AT&T in southern part of the state is or recently has converted to 3G. They are still “fixing” issues according to the store rep yesterday. You may be in one of those areas.
We just got connected to the 3G system this month...Madison, Brown County, Jackson County ....areas along I 65 South. Is your county connected yet?
thanks for the link
The internet is down. No one can connect.
have you set your beebers to stune?
Telltale sign: Is there a host covering the sun?
Yesterday was a holiday. The internet was closed for Independence Day until 6am this morning.
:)
Mine is down right now also.
