Rob wireless80 The GSM network is completly down in the Chicago area also! > gsm in dayton - down north of dayton, tipp city, troy, piqua area -= > anybody else in this local area experiencing problems or been able to get [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > Version: 6.0.521 / Virus Database: 319 - Release Date: 9/23/03 Count the entire Atlanta metro area as well. They told me it's not just GSM and it's apparently the entire system. I have a week-old phone and was pissed because I couldn't get service this AM and while I was out happened by a Cingular store and stopped in and was told this. Her exact words were "major outtage". Lame . . . lame . . . lame. I just switched to GSM and she said this is the first time this has happened. Is she lying? jc > The GSM network is completly down in the Chicago area also! > > gsm in dayton - down north of dayton, tipp city, troy, piqua area -= [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- > http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! >100,000 Newsgroups > ---= =--- > The GSM network is completly down in the Chicago area also!

Wait..mine just came back about 2 minutes ago! >Central Florida apparently down as well! > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >>calls >>> are normal. I'm in Nashville as well....still no luck. I spoke with a rep (after 20 minutes on hold) that said the only thing to do was to cut the phone off and back on every so often and see if it has been fixed. Talk about unhelpful. You'd think they'd put some update on their website or something but I can't find anything about it. >GSM is down in Nashville, Tennessee. >Any word on teh problem or when it will be fixed?

Anyone heard any news about GSM coming back online? This is a HUGE inconvenience for everyone on GSM. I am in the Nashville, TN Market, and Cingular hasnt said anything yet. -Clay "jc" <johnc_22@yahoo.com> wrote in article <hDndb.458$5u5.8@bignews5.bellsouth.net>: > Gee, wonder if they'll pro-rate our bills? > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > >calls > > >> are normal. Well, we're up and down here in Nashville. My phone can receive calls, but I can't make them. My wife's cell phone (same model) can't send or receive. Go figure. >Gee, wonder if they'll pro-rate our bills? > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >> >calls >> >> are normal. Still dead in Chicago......can't spread the Cubbies word! Wife's non-gsm is fine. >The GSM network is completly down in the Chicago area also! >> gsm in dayton - down north of dayton, tipp city, troy, piqua area -= >> anybody else in this local area experiencing problems or been able to get [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> wireless80 >> --- Well, that's why you need a GAIT phone. When GSM goes down here in Detroit my Nokia 6340i justs pick up Cingular TDMA or ATTWS GSM or TDMA , or T-Mobile GSM.

GSM has been a joke for the last 24 hours. My Nextel is working just fine however...isn't that amazing!!!!. > here in michigan, we has a power outage for about, oh 2 seconds around 2 PM > EST.

Hmmmmm... The way people describe it, it sounds like the GSM account servers are off line. The network can't verify that you are a registered user. The other phones have no problem which means they are on different servers. If the account servers for the gsm customers are near you. The power outage may have been caused by a power interruption the buildings that they are located in. And the power surge got past the UPS equipment. Or the power lines may have shorted to the telecommunications lines and the voltage running back to the servers via the telecommunications lines fried them. And the GSM customers will slowly get back service in small bits as they enter the customer information into new servers that they are getting on line. I haven't seen any disruption on a tdma or amps phones here in Indiana. > > here in michigan, we has a power outage for about, oh 2 seconds around 2 > PM [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > I haven't seen any disruption on a tdma or amps phones here > in Indiana. No GSM service for several hours this morning on the NE side of Indianapolis, IN. No signal on either of our two GSM handsets. Service was available as we drove to Noblesville, IN but was still down when we returned to the home area. No RF signal at all. Power cycling the handset brought it back to life about 30 minutes after we had returned from Noblesville to Indianapolis. Incoming and outgoing service was OK in Noblesville. Not sure who was carrying the GSM service in that area though. Mike - K9JRI > No GSM service for several hours this morning on the NE side of > Indianapolis, IN.
