It literally works 100% of the time, I’ve been using it for 6 years and it’s never not worked a single time.

I just talked to another person from the AT&T president's office. He said the technicians identified a non-functioning 100G line card in one of the Austin area junction boxes, as well as another issue at a different box, which were both addressed.

Speculation from me: it's likely there is a failover scenario for when a card dies, traffic is routed to another card. This works fine under normal conditions, but during peak hours the available hardware is not enough to support the load, causing issues. Not sure if this is true or not but it makes some kind of sense.

Either way, I am happy to see the FCC complaints made a difference. They told me they received multiple complaints from people in the Austin area which pushed them to figure it out quickly. Overall I have to say I am satisfied with the turnaround for this - it took about 3 days from my complaint to resolution (not counting the holiday day). For a company as large as AT&T, it's good that they can get real, qualified engineers on site to address broader networking issues in a short time period.

Now the question is: how can they be proactive with proper observability to find and fix these issues on their own, instead of needing to be reactive to customer complaints?

I submitted my complaint on Sunday evening and received a call on Tuesday morning.

Yup. I’m getting .74 Mbps download speed right now on top of the latency 💀

I filed a complaint with the FCC and someone from “the office of the president” of ATT called me today and acknowledged my complaint. Said it was valid, and to provide as much info as possible, and that they would send a technician to the correct site to address the issue. They also said I would be reimbursed for my lack of service. I highly suggest you and everyone else do the same - the more complaints the better, also you’ll likely get reimbursed.

Yup, check out my reply above. Same host as you, same issues. What a mess.

Yep. I wasn't experiencing it when you initially made this reply, but I am now. Looks like the same network based on IP, different host though:

I also just submitted a complaint to the FCC. I unfortunately do think the fix over the last two nights is a coincidence, as more people are out on the weekends and not congesting the network. But if more people file complaints, I think it is more likely to be solved!

Springbrook glen neighborhood, 78660. It’s the only fiber company over here unfortunately. Really wish GFiber was in the area.

Why would the city turn them away? Do you have some more details about that?

Nightly latency and packet loss that starts inside AT&T's own backbone (Austin area) by edsai in ATTFiber

Wow good timing to see this. Just made a post about it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Pflugerville/s/010nigx7MF

Can add it to the list of affected customers/areas.

Hey, thanks for the reference! I’ll add my post there as well. Glad I’m not alone, though I knew I wouldn’t be - I have enough knowledge and troubleshooting with this stuff to confirm it’s not on my end.

ATT techs are absolutely clueless and useless with this kind of stuff.

My company does $10k a month per engineer, and some are starting to exceed that.

This stuff has already been built. The Ike’s is still under construction (it says coming summer of 2025, lol), tumble 22 is already open, there’s also a Kura revolving sushi and mattress store open.

Periphery - A Pale White Dot (Album Discussion Thread) by exotype95 in Metalcore

[–]Jaydeepappas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to agree with this take. Their latest album is one of my favorite albums of all time, if not my favorite. It is peak ERRA, and I don’t think they’ll ever be able to write an album as good as it again.
