[comp.dcom.telecom] Entire Network Offline - No One Knows What's Wrong

Jeff Wasilko <jjwcmp@ultb.isc.rit.edu> (04/10/91)

Our building's telephone and data service has been out since late
Sunday night. We are served from our campus' System 85 by a microwave
link, and something broke -- and AT&T is apparently baffled. We've
finally got a few cellular phones in, but the AT&T microwave folks are
madly swapping components, and have no idea when things will be
working again. One of the perils of being your own telephone company,
I guess.
