I use Centurylink for internet and woke up to It not working. After much resetting of everything went on line and they have a massive nationwide problem so if you use them no use calling the whole Country is experiencing a big problem. They are based in La where the hurricane hit but have no idea if it is connected

Foreign speaking voice says “Hello, Hello, Hello”....kept answering them then immediate dial tone.

Downdetector.com shows outage map and many, many angry comments.

I called around 0715 am was advised outage and would be restored by 1130. Arrived home after golf 11am was working, minor road block on the highway of life.

Just about every internet provider was down during the same period.

How did u go on line to find out out widespread outage? It would hv save me trying to get them for hrs. I had internet when I first got up, very early riser, then 1-2hrs later went down. Saw this reflected on my modem. Of course I tried calling tech serv for the next sev hrs but did not get through until around noon when their recording said IP prob resolved. All the time I’ve had century link , I rearly hv a prob.

We finally got disgusted with CenturyLink in early July. Switched to Xfinity and we couldn't be happier with the service.

As a CenturyLink customer, we were limited to 25 MBPS download/1MBPS upload because we were on a double DSL line. It was costing ~$92 per month with a land line.

I called in late June to drop the land line and was told my rate would drop to ~$68 per month, but my internet download speed would be limited to 10 MBPS. That was enough for me.

Switched to Xfinity internet only for $40 per month and I'm reliably receiving 100 MBPS download and 5 MBPS upload.

All our internet provider do is provide a connection to the internet. They do not maintain the servers. US hands internet control to ICANN this happened in 2016

I found out quickly about the widespread outage by using my cellphone that uses Verzon for Internet access. I googled CenturyLink and saw there were outage issues. Also, went to Downdetector.com to get more info. I never bothered calling since they knew they had a problem!
