The network went down in parts of the U.S., for both iPhone and Android users. This happened back in February (alongside several other networks), and it seems round two is occurring now.
What's going on?
More than a thousand AT&T users have reported outages in the last 24 hours. According to Downdetector, over 1,130 users have reported service issues as of 7am ET. Most have reported issues on their mobile phone (58 percent) while others have encountered problems with their landline internet (14 percent).

Where did this happen?
The outages occurred in Virginia and North Carolina, an AT&T spokesperson confirmed.
"We worked as quickly as possible to restore service to some customers in the coastal areas of Virginia and North Carolina whose service may have been affected this morning by an equipment failure," the spokesperson said. "We apologize for the inconvenience."
Some users reported issues three days ago, saying they weren't receiving mobile signal or internet services. This has picked up significantly today. Many users also took to X (formally Twitter) to vent about lost service – or reach out to AT&T to request help.
