Apparently Equifax is down for consumers and businesses.
by Chapman, Brad (NBCUniversal) 13 Jul '26

13 Jul '26

I was ordering fiber optic internet from Frontier Communications—my doctor said I should consume more fiber—but their system said my credit check failed and was demanding an equipment deposit. I pushed back. They ran it three times. Then they got word in a group chat that Equifax’s consumer and business portals are down, so they can’t process any credit checks. Woe be unto you if you work in finance or support a business that depends on this service. I hope they didn’t have another breach. Maybe they will need a tiny excavator to dig them out of this mess like that freighter stuck in the Suez canal<https://www.reddit.com/r/CatastrophicFailure/comments/mcw8og/new_pictures_f…> for the last two days... Cheers, Brad

AT&T high latency coast to coast
by Trendal Toews 30 May '22

30 May '22

We've got 3 circuits in Northern California that went from <10ms to >30ms to our BGP peer on April 26 or 27. Created tickets on all circuits when I discovered it. Got a call from AT&T tech support today saying it's a wide spread problem. >From here to Reno NV affected. He had me traceroute to the east coast over AT&T and it was >90ms, should be 70-80 max Gamers and VPN's on our network aren't happy. Claimed a fix was on the way but no ETA. It's been a month now
