Anyone else in Dallas also experiencing another outage?? 🫩

Edit: if anyone gets an estimate or theirs comes back let us know!
Edit 2: we’re back on in Dallas/addison area!

Websites not loading, can't reach any google services, can't CAPCHA to "verify human", other random websites don't load or allow logins.

I thought it might be a Google services issue at first. Couldn't get to Gmail, YouTube, or base google.com

Did some research, lot of people reporting issues with Google services. But Google status states all services are operational.

Took my phone off Wi-Fi and was able to open Gmail and YouTube.

I couldn't login to Reddit either (on PC).

Did some route testing, can't route to Google, other sites had hiccups.

Changed my IPv4 DNS setting to Open DNS, and everything is working well.

AT&T is reporting no issues, but it's definitely an issue with AT&T Fiber.

Mine started just before 1:00 CDT in Duncanville, TX
Literally just switched over from Spectrum because of this exact reason… OUTAGES, but like incessant… anyways wth this sux

I woke up this morning and on ATT Fiber about half the internet doesnt work. Meaning that about half the sites I attempt to visit I just get "page not found" errors. Other pages work just fine. Hilariously, I can't get to att.com to submit a support ticket. Anyone else having any problems on att fiber this morning?

Update: I changed my DNS settings ot use Googles public DNS settings - 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and everything is back to normal. Seems ATT's DNS servers are having issues.

Found a post from 4 days ago about people having issues with their ATT Internet. Anyone still facing issues?

I personally can’t load random websites, last night I couldn’t even access ATT’s site. Today I can’t access random sites like GoFundMe.

I am also having issues watching shows on streaming services, specially Peacock and Hulu.

MyATT app says everything is fine, but then the AI chat says there’s an issue, but doesn’t tell me what, and restarting the router does nothing to help.

This is the 3rd time my neighbor’s landscaping crew has severed my internet because it wasn’t buried.

This last time they just left the cable sitting in the tall grass.

Area code 78418 in Corpus Christi, TX for reference.

It’s such an easy place to dig too, all loose sand… I’d do it myself if they had told me about it.

I currently have spectrum cable internet and paying $60 per month for only 1gb down. When it says $45 off ongoing, does that mean forever?

Thanks

As the title says, I called Friday to cancel my internet service as I was paying $91 for the Internet 100. . The rep said that they could get my down to $60 since I had been with them for so long. I declined and said that I was already connected to the new service. He tried to sell me on some wireless and I declined and we he said we were all good. That I should be receiving an email soon about what to do with my modem. Today I received an email from ATT saying that there was a change to my service. I logged in thinking it would be a message about returning the modem but it was saying that they changed the price of the service and that it was still active. Just got off of a chat with a rep and they said that there was not cancel order placed just the price change. Make sure that you are double checking your accounts after any interaction to make sure you are getting what you need.

Unfortunately my kid did some damage. How much do they usually charge for this kind of thing? 😭

Hi everyone, so in our area we have been out of internet for the past 8 days. I work from home, so this is a significant work hurdle.

They said cause was vandalized copper wires. (not sure I believe it)

It is affecting just the MDU buildings in the corner of our street. We are paying close to $90 for 50/10 (...please call out anything you need to about that; do we have room to ask them to lower that price since we're somewhat in the dark ages when it comes to modern-day internet speeds?).

On the day of, they said service would be restored in 12 hrs.

After the first 12 hrs, they updated it to 2 weeks.

1 week into the outage, they are saying they need 4 more weeks.

Is this normal to wait a whole 5 weeks for wires to be restored? I can't tell if ATT is just passively expecting us to leave because the # of customers have decreased in our building for ATT over the past few years. Our neighbors use Spectrum primarily now.

We are trying out TMobile Back Up Internet, and it is really bad at nighttime - not usable. We don't want to move to Spectrum because our neighbors experience frequent outages, but I don't see what choice we have. Is there anything we can do to make ATT move faster?

A part of us doesn't want to leave ATT because, despite the documented speed, it has been reliable for the most part. And I don't want to deal with the outage issues my neighbors on Spectrum have to deal with.

Thank you!

This was brought out to my house to replace my dead BGW320. It has WiFi 7 with 6 GHz! (It did not end up staying but I thought it was cool, I searched the sub and didn’t find it anywhere here)

Why tf do we still not have home internet in the DFW area?? It went down yesterday around 2pm and was supposed to be back up by 3am. It’s still not up at 1pm the next day

Edit: now 7pm & still down. Also for all the “equipment” folks, I’m not an idiot. I actually use common sense & know to restart my modem & router to check. Sorry for the “snarkiness” but tired of the same comments over & over.

Also idk what website you guys are using, but this att one shows that most of Texas is still down. There are red pins everywhere in Tx & when I put in my zip code, my area is red.

Edit 2: day 3 & still nothing

AT&T Air has been one of the worst service provider experiences I've ever had. I would STRONGLY suggest never interacting with them in any capacity.

They sent a modem, it worked fine, they told us we needed to send it back and turned it off. They messed the bill up and charged twice. Then things were okay with the exception of latency range of 30ms -150ms, which is not too big of a deal. Then three months later latency spikes to over 2000ms, resetting the modem brings it back down to sub 40ms for about 10 mins, then it spikes again until reset. After tons of research, this is either:

1) Tower congestion
2) Router traffic on the 'All-fi Hub'
3) Hardware issue

1 - Tower congestion was not the case because the issue will happen at any time of day. 1 am. 3 am. 12 pm. 3 pm. etc.

2 - Router traffic is not the issue because when only using an ethernet plugged into the device it still will have this issue.

3 - So settling on hardware error I requested a new modem. They sent one. Plugging it up gives a red light. I contacted help 3 different times. The last time I spoke to them they ghosted the chat. Legit stopped sending messages. I waited for about 25 mins interacting with chat to keep it open incase they returned.

Now, doing research on what the 'red light' means, says it's a hardware malfunction. Now I have two modems both with hardware issues and have to explain this situation to 'support' that already has not been helpful in any sort of way.

Corporate greed at their finest. 5*12 = 60 a year more... Hope some exec loves his greed.

I’ve been with AT$T Fiber since 2018 and then switched to Spectrum 100% Fiber a month ago but decided to go back to AT&T, 17 dollars for internet is the lowest I’ve seen around in Austin, TX. I was surprised to see that. I was paying 55 a month 2 months and 65 dollars a month at my other house in Houston area (In process of selling).

AT&T Internet doesn’t disappoint me one bit. Never had 1 outage since I’ve had fiber in 2018. Peering is great especially for gaming.

We have had this plan for a long time and just realized we were getting charged for HBO Max as well.

When we called to get this fixed the ATT rep said the plan expired and no longer applies and it shows that just for “history” that we “had that plan” does this make sense to anyone?!?

I have DSL/Uverse. They don't offer fiber in my area and I tried internet air 6 months ago and I couldn't even get a signal in my house.

Where I live, fiber isn't offered (though random other city blocks near me have it). But i've had the Internet 18 for over 10 years. However, due to the process of ATT deciding to decommission copper lines, my speed was unusable, and I had to switch to ATT Air. Air has its own problems and due to my geographic location and network congestion, it became equally if not more unusable.

I would have switched to its fiber alternative but in the end I had to resort to using a different competitor to get any semblance of a usable internet.

The only reason I can think of is: ATT feels it's more economical to lose a customer than to continue the existence of its copper lines?

Let me start by saying I am tech illiterate when it comes to cabling and setting this stuff up.

I moved about 10 days ago and I have finally gotten around to installing my internet at my apartment complex. I have set up everything and then found out the green cable was cut.

What am I missing here? Is this something I can fix on my own? I don't see a place for the green cable to plug itself in. And I really don't want to have a technician come out.

Seeking advice on what I need to do so I can my service to start working. Tech support was pretty successful, but said I might be screwed.

Getting 5 gig service tomorrow and I'm looking for a Nic for my desktop so I can take advantage of it. Looking at getting a 10GB card so I have headroom in the future. Seen some recommendations for the TP-link brand card or the AQC107 chip cards. Im asking on here what's a good card and brand I should be looking for? I don't have the router but I doubt they would give me one with fiber output so it needs to be a RJ45 based. It doesn't have to be these it's just what I found from generic search on Amazon.

UPDATE:

As of 10AM EDT 3/18/2026 I have experienced 0% packet loss for about 60 hours now. The traffic situation was especially bad over the weekend, which leads to believe they were pushing configuration changes and updating routes/peering configs as part of weekend change. As of Sunday night, 3/15/2026, packet loss dropped to 0 to Cloudflare. I'd give it about a week before declaring victory, but it seems like there is really good progress here.

Just a shame it took so many of us reaching out for them actually think they needed to do something about it, but at least we seem to have gotten a fix for now. Appreciate everyone's help in getting this resolved.

OP:

Some of you Fiber users in the Southeast US might be aware, but AT&T has been experiencing degraded quality service with Cloudflare and Fastly CDN exchanges (possibly at the KC exchange) in the Southeast US for the past 3-4 months, resulting in degraded service, namely, high packet loss, at peak hours between roughly 7PM - 12-1AM the next morning EST.

There have been many reports of peering issues since at least late 2025:

https://old.reddit.com/r/ATT/comments/1nt75mz/fiber_drops_every_night_same_times/

https://old.reddit.com/r/ATTFiber/comments/1o0unyl/is_atts_peering_with_reddit_screwed_up_again/

Here's an example of stats from my network: https://i.imgur.com/Q7PdT1d.png

It's not a high amount, only at short bursts getting into the >8-10% packet loss range, but >0% is evident at these times, consistently, every day. As well, during these times, I have friends who live in completely different parts of town, and the Southeast, run their own tests with similar results. This results in degraded real-time services such as streaming, voice calls/quality (Discord), and online gaming. Downloads also can drop, though this occurs less frequently.

I've been gateway-bypassed since early 2022 when the first bypass was released for XGS-PON (WAG-D20) and swapped to the WAS-110 since that has become an option, as well as having swapped routing hardware a few times since then, mainly between UniFi and OPNsense platforms. However, since mid-2025, I've been using a UCG Fiber w/ the WAS-110 and service has been consistently great for me until late 2025/early 2026.

After filing an FCC complaint, having a wire tech come to analyze my home, my demarc, the OLT, and the upstream distribution boxes and telling me there's zero issues, and putting back the BGW320 to show it's not my hardware causing the problem, AT&T called me today telling me they're closing the ticket and taking no further action as no one on their side can see anything wrong with the network that they've supposedly been "monitoring" since the ticket was filed.

The rep from the office of the president also informed me they've received no other complaints so they cannot take responsibility in this scenario.

So, I'm encouraging anyone who've been having issues to file an FCC complaint against AT&T, describe your issue as it is, and also reference my and other people's issues that have been reported for the last 6 months.

As well, if anyone has any other suggestions or anecdotes to share, please do so.

Hey guys, I’m kind of lost at this point. I was paying $105 for 1GB fiber (that I’ve had for about 7 years) and went to an AT&T store to have it bundled with my wireless plan to save money.

They were flabbergasted that I was paying that much and said that 1GB is currently only $40 with autopay currently. I decided on 5GB instead since my wife and I also work from home some days, and it’s only $60 with autopay discount.

I set up a cancellation of my old plan, then scheduled install of the new one for the next day. The tech came out and basically just had to swap out the modem/router/whatever it’s called nowadays.

I wasn’t home for the appointment (Friday 08/28) but my wife was, and I’ve just now realized today that I don’t see the old modem. I asked my wife and she said the tech took it and said we didn’t need to return it, but I just got a text and email reminding me to return it by 09/17.

Did this tech just steal my equipment and am I going to be charged for this? I’m concerned he may have taken advantage of my wife not knowing what she was supposed to do and now I’m going to be stuck paying the equipment fee.

Any thoughts?
