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

Hi All, Anyone else in the Midwest affected by the Lumen OC48 outage? We have a few small sites in the Kansas and Iowa area that are down. This is going on day 3 now and Lumen has provided little to no info about it. The last update I got from Lumen is that they are isolating a higher level issue with no ETR at this time.

IPAWS/FEMA National Test - VoWIFI
by Jay R. Ashworth 05 Oct '23

05 Oct '23

I have a report from a usually reliable source that he did not receive today's IPAWS/CMAS/WEA test message, and he surmises this might be because his phone handset is forced to VoWIFI. I have a number of other reports, mostly though not all, from the broadcast engineering community; nobody reported expecting a CMAS and not getting it, so that's not data here. Is anyone on the list involved with the FEMA/IPAWS/CMAS link, or knows someone who is, and has a channel to clear this query up through? I could be unsurprised to find that the carrier VoWIFI proxies missed out on proxying SMS Cell Broadcast, which I gather provides the underlying PHY for CMAS. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
